Why do people burn coal and oil?
People burn coal and oil as sources of energy because they are relatively cheap and plentiful. They produce high amounts of energy when burned, making them suitable for use in power plants and vehicles. However, burning coal and oil releases pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to air pollution and climate change.
Benifits of solar energy?
The benefits are that it is free as you produce solar energy from the sun, it is environmental friendly as you do not burn, gas, coal or fuel to produce it, and if you produce extra energy you can feed this back in the national grid and get paid for it
What are examples of nonrenewable energy resources and why are they not renewable?
gas because we have to burn coal or something to get gas and there's no unlimited coal therefore without that we can't produce it
What is a way to produce heat energy?
Burn a fossil fuel like coal or oil, or use uranium in a nuclear reactor
How does the energy source coal work?
The energy in coal is chemical energy. The usual way to extract it is to burn the coal converting it to heat energy. This can then be turned into electrical energy Fuels like gasoline and coal are sources of energy which means they store energy
How is fossil fuels used to produce energy?
when we burn fossil fuels such as oil,gas and coal we produce heat.This can be used to fuel power plants which is where most of our energy for electronic devices and heating are funded
Does coal provide heat?
Yes, coal can be burned to produce heat. It releases energy in the form of heat when it is combusted, making it a common source of heat in furnaces and power plants.
Is coal energy non renewable?
coal is non-renwable because you burn it
How much energy is produced when you burn coal?
The energy produced when burning coal can vary, but on average, one ton of coal can produce about 2,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity. Coal combustion releases heat energy due to the chemical reaction between coal and oxygen. This heat energy is used to produce steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity.
What is the significance of the remains of the carboninferous period?
The organic remains are called coal. We can burn coal to produce heat.
Why do you need coal?
We use coal to burn. Coal is a store of energy that can be used for direct heating. running boilers. turbines for electricity, gas can also be extracted from it. and it is cheap. coal ca be replaced wit nuclear energy which can produce energy. However the coal lobby is very powerful and certain country's stand to lose a lot of money if it is left in the ground.
How does the coal source work?
