Which alternative energy sources is exhaustible?
BiomassNuclear fissionPossibly geothermalWell, if you want to be pedantic about it, so is solar, wind and tide energy. The sun will transition to red giant in a few billion years then (probably) become a white dwarf. No more sunlight. And even longer after that, as the universe is expanding, due to the law of entropy, everything will eventually be spread out thinly across space, and the energy levels will be constant everywhere. So if you want to be pedantic, EVERY source of alternative energy will run out eventually, but the person asking this question obviously wants to know what alternative energy sources are exhaustible in the timeframe of human existence, and the answer to that is biomass and nuclear (with the current technologies, the figures show we will run out of uranium in about 160-200+ years, but potential new technologies look to be able to extend our uranium supply almost indefinitely). And technically we can run out of (useable) biomass.Realistically, we're never going to run out of biomass, though producing enough to satisfy fuel demands could be very difficult. Efficient use of current technology and (more important) fuel recycling means that we're unlikely to run out of nuclear fission fuel, either. We're never going to run out of nuclear fusion fuel.Geothermal is tricky. We're never going to run out of geothermal energy to tap into (as that would require cooling of the earth's core, which won't happen on a human timescale), but individual places where geothermal energy is available can easily change, and as geothermal isn't portable, it is entirely possible for a given location to be unable to produce geothermal power at some point.
How much is cost of installing geothermal systems?
The average cost to install a residential geothermal system is 10-30k depending on the type of heat pump you buy and the extent of underground piping. In 2009-2010 the US government is providing tax credits to help offset the cost of installation. To get an exact installation cost look up a local geothermal expert.
What will el capitan look like in the future?
El Capitan is a granite rock formation located in Yosemite National Park, so its appearance will likely remain unchanged in the foreseeable future. However, environmental factors such as weathering and erosion may slowly alter its surface over many years.
What will the earth look like in 2089?
Predicting the exact appearance of the Earth in 2089 is difficult due to numerous variables such as climate change, technological advancements, and geopolitical situations. However, efforts to address climate change, preserve biodiversity, and promote sustainability can positively shape the Earth's future landscape. It is likely that there will be an increased focus on renewable energy sources, green technology, and environmental conservation to mitigate the impact of human activities on the planet.
Why is solar energy the chief energy source on earth?
Solar energy is the chief energy source on Earth because the sun radiates an immense amount of energy that reaches the Earth's surface. This energy can be harnessed through solar panels to generate electricity, making solar power a sustainable and renewable energy source with minimal environmental impact. Additionally, advancements in technology have made solar energy more affordable and accessible for widespread use.
How was energy of the future made up?
For the future, you should use the phrase "will be", not "was". And nobody really knows what the energy use in the future will look like. However, it seems likely that energy sources that are more sustainable than burning fossil fuels will have to be used eventually, since the fossil fuels are quickly getting used up. These might include solar energy, wind energy, energy from waves, nuclear fusion, tidal energy, and geothermal energy.
