What is the relationship between thermal energy and fossil fuels?
The chemical reaction caused by burning fossil fuels produces a large amount of thermal energy. This principle is the main reason that fossil fuels are obtained.
Does burning petrol release energy?
Petrol is a fossil fuel made from crude oil and burning fossil fuels produce energy so yes burning petrol does release energy.
How do you make fossil fuels create heat?
Fossil fuels, coal, oil and natural gas, are a non-renewable source of energy. Formed from plants and animals that lived up to 300 million years ago, fossil fuels are found in deposits beneath the earth
How is fossil fuel energy lost?
Fossil Fuels are lost by factories and other high powered places burning them for energy. Since they're an nonrenewable resource we can't get fossil fuels back.
How do you create non-renewable energy?
By burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide.
What can you do to reduce burning of fossil fuels?
Lower the energy consumption and/or switch to non-fossil energy.
Could fossil fuels create electricity?
Yes, fossil fuels can and do create electricity. Most electricity round the world today is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
Does energy come from burning fossil fuels?
Yes, certainly it does
How can energy be made without burning fossil fuels?
well, you have renewable energy such as wind power, wave power etc... all this generates electricity without burning fossil fuels
Why is wind energy better for the environment?
Since wind energy doesn't require the burning of fossil fuels, it doesn't create pollution or greenhouse gases.
What releases the chemical energy in fossil fuels?
Burning them releases the chemical energy.
What is the relationship between thermal energy and fossil fuels?
The chemical reaction caused by burning fossil fuels produces a large amount of thermal energy. This principle is the main reason that fossil fuels are obtained.
How are fossil fuels used to create energy?
They are burned
Burning fossil fuels is like letting go of a slingshot because both change potential energy into?
Burning fossil fuels turns potential energy into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is energy in motion, which can be used to do work.
Does burning petrol release energy?
Petrol is a fossil fuel made from crude oil and burning fossil fuels produce energy so yes burning petrol does release energy.
How do you make fossil fuels create heat?

Is it true or false that burning fossil fuels create pollution in the environment?
It is true. Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas which is now regarded as pollution.
