What else can I help you with?
Why do we need to burn fossil fuels?
Because they are the most readily available and easiest to use energy source. We need to use any and all available energy sources. Fossil fuels have many drawbacks, but their near global availability and ease of use guarantees that they will be used even with such drawbacks.
What does it mean to say that in any system the total energy score stays the same?
It means that the energy demand stays the same no matter what energy source it is coming from!
What source does light come from?
Any producer of heat can produce light by reaching enough energy
Does paper absorb heat?
Depending on the source of the heat energy: -A darker piece of paper would absorb more energy from light sources, then a white piece of paper. This is due to the fact that the white piece of paper would reflect most of the light energy, whereas the dark paper would absorb that energy. This light energy can then be converted into heat energy, leading the dark paper to have more heat energy then the white paper -Heat from a source such as hot water being poured on the paper, would not lead to any color related heat difference
Write a short paragraph summarising why crude oil is the most common source of fuel even though alternatives are available?
Crude oil is relatively common, easy to get to and cheap compared with any other non renewable fuel sources. Furthermore it has many different uses once distilled and gives out a high amount of energy.
What energy is needed to form a wave Where did the energy come from?
The energy can come from just about any source of AVAILABLE energy.
Where the energy source is found?
any source of energy can be found from the sun
Is the moon a source of solar energy?
No, it is not source of any energy as it is a planet not a star.
When can an electric motor be used?
You can usually use an electric motor any time you have an available source of electricity with which to run it.
Any material from which energy can be obtained is called a?
Source of energy.
Can geothermal energy be change into to any other energy source?
No
Is electricity a clean source of energy?
The term clean source of energy refers to only primary energy sources as wind or solar energy. Electricity, by definition, is not a primary energy source. It is a secondary energy source that is could be produced by a clean energy source as wind or any renewable primary energy source or produced by fossil energy source as oil, natural gas, or coal.
What is the original source of energy in firewood?
The original source of the energy in any combustible plant material is from the sun.
What is the source of energy in the taiga biomes?
As with any biome, the ultimate source is the sun
What energy source was needed for the typewriter?
A typewriter typically required mechanical energy to operate. This energy was provided by manually pressing keys that caused the typewriter's mechanisms to move and imprint characters onto paper. Additionally, electric typewriters were available that required electricity to power their motorized components.
What is best to generate electricity from mechanical energy or magnetic energy?
There actually aren't any large deposits of magnetic energy to tap from, that are easily available, so it doesn't make much sense to talk about "generating electricity from magnetic energy". In a generator, there are magnetic fields, but any energy stored in those is an intermediate step, not the original source of the energy.With mechanical energy, the situation is quite different; the water in a dam (for example) has a large amount of stored potential energy, which is a kind of mechanical energy.There actually aren't any large deposits of magnetic energy to tap from, that are easily available, so it doesn't make much sense to talk about "generating electricity from magnetic energy".
