What else can I help you with?
What are non-extractive resources?
Non-extractive resources are those that can be used without being consumed or depleted, such as solar energy, wind energy, and geothermal energy. These resources can be harnessed for human use without causing harm to the environment or depleting the resource itself.
Why is coal and other fossil fuel's considered nonrenewable energy sources?
Coal and other fossil fuels take millions of years to form from dead plants and animals under high pressure and heat. Since this process is extremely slow, these resources are being depleted much faster than they are being replenished, making them nonrenewable energy sources.
Does geothermal energy change into another substance before it can create energy?
Geothermal energy is energy. It does not change into a substance, although it cam be transformed into other forms of energy. When it is not used directly to heat buildings, geothermal energy (heat) is typically used to run turbines for conversion to electrical energy
Non renewable mineral resources?
Includes any ores or minerals that are being removed at or below the surface of the Earth, processed into a usable form, used, then burned for energy or placed in areas of disposal after use. Coal would typically be a good example.
Picture of inexhaustible resources?
I'm unable to view images, but an example of an inexhaustible resource is solar energy. The sun continuously provides solar power, which can be harnessed through solar panels to generate electricity without being depleted. Other examples include wind power and geothermal energy.
What energy is being converted when the sun gives energy to solar panels?
Anywhere from 10-23% of sunlight is converted into "usable" electricity.
What is energy conservation and why should citizens conserve energy?
Energy conservation is that energy cannot be created or destroyed it can be transferred or transformed. We conserve energy no matter what we do. What we are really being told is to conserve usable energy which is energy not in the form of heat. We are told this to avoid the heat death of the universe this is when all the usable energy is lost due to heat.
How is the ozone layer being depleted?
Ozone is being depleted by CFC's. They react with ozone and deplete it.
How ozone layer being depleted by chloroflurocarbon?
Ozone layer is being depleted by CFC's. They react with ozone and decompose it.
What are some consepuences of the ozone being depleted?
Some consequences of ozone being depleted are. Floods, global warming etc.
What is energy waiting to be used?
Energy that is available to be used but is not currently being utilized is often referred to as stored or potential energy. This can include energy stored in batteries, fuel, or other forms that can be converted into usable energy when needed.
Is potential energy renewable?
Yes, potential energy is considered renewable because it is derived from sources that are naturally replenished, such as gravitational, elastic, and chemical potential energy. These sources can be harnessed repeatedly without being depleted.
Ozone layer and how its getting depleted?
Ozone layer is a layer of earth. It is being depleted. The reason is CFC.
What are some consequences of Earth's atmosphere being depleted?
Earth's atmosphere is being depleted due to the industrialization. This causes the dangerous rays of the sun to enter in.
Is tidal energy being used in Hawaii?
Currently Hawaii is not using tidal energy, although a pretty effective renewable energy source the tides in Hawaii are not strong enough to generate enough usable energy thus would be ineffective.
Various ways of energy conversion in nature?
In nature, energy is converted through processes such as photosynthesis, where sunlight is converted into chemical energy by plants. Another example is cellular respiration, where organisms convert chemical energy stored in food into usable energy. Additionally, geothermal energy is produced through heat from within the Earth's core being converted into usable energy.
What kind of energy is represented by the food being eaten?
When food is being eaten, kinetic energy is present from the movement of the arm to pick up the food, all the way to the stomach converting the food into usable fuel for the body. Remember: energy is the ability to do work eating creates all types of energy,chemical energy, electrical energy, heat (thermal energy), light (radiant energy), mechanical energy, and nuclear energy
