fuel is made from fossil fuels and emits carbon dioxide, it is a raw fuel that can be turned into energy, energy is the result of a reaction, power plants produce energy by changing electrons and harvesting the energy produced from the reaction, energy is used as a power source and is measured in wats, while fuels are used in cars and most engines and are simply used as a starting device and a stability device. which is why cars use baterys and fossil fuels
What else can I help you with?
How might an increased use of alternate energy sources such as wind and solar radiation affect the lifetime of fossil fuel resources?
If we use more alternate energy, then we will use less fossil fuel energy, so fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) will have a longer life time.Anything and EVERYTHING that will have a detrimental impact upon the use of fossil fuels may just increase 'Our Life Time'.
Is water a fossil fuel energy?
No.
Explain why wood is a fuel but not a fossil fuel?
Wood is a fuel as it can provide energy by burning. But, it is not formed by fossils and hence not called a fossil fuel.
Explain the process of using fossil fuel as energy?
They are burned with oxygen to produce energy.
How much gasoline is 5625000 pounds of rocket fuel?
How much energy is in one gallon of gas, compare this to quantity of energy in one gallon of rocket fuel, voila, your answer!!!
What is the difference between solar geothermal nuclear fossil fuel hydroelectric energy?
they arn't the same type of energy
Energy sources other than fossil fuel are called what resources?
Renewable energy resources.
What is the difference between coal and fuel and renewable resources?
Coal and fuel can not be reused because they have been burnt away. Renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass and biofuel) keeps coming back and can be used again.
What is difference between fuel and power?
Power is energy that you can put to work, such as the electric current produced from a generator or engine.Fuel is a material with potential energy, it can be used to produce energy.
What is the difference between an engine and a compressor?
not quite sure the exact but compressor is used to compress a fuel while engine changes the fuel into useful mechanical energy.
Which resources is the main source of energy in the United States?
fossil fuel
What are some of Bulgaria's non-renewable resources?
coal energy, disel fuel energy, bio diesel energy
What energy resources can be found in deserts?
Solar energy, geothermal energy, wind, petroleum, coal, uranium (nuclear fuel).
What is the basic difference between solar cells and fuel cells?
A fuel cell is an electrochemical energy conversion device whiles a solar cell is a device that converts photons from the sun into electricity.
What's the difference between unleaded and diesel fuel?
Unleaded fuel is used in gasoline engines, while diesel fuel is used in diesel engines. The main difference is in how the engines ignite the fuel - gasoline engines use spark plugs, while diesel engines use compression to ignite the fuel. Diesel fuel also has a higher energy density than unleaded fuel.
What is the difference in energy production between fossil fuels and nuclear reactors?
One uranium fuel pellet about the size of a thimble can generate the same amount of energy as roughly one ton of coal.
Which is not a renewable energy resources?
Coal is not a renewable energy resource. It is a fossil fuel that is finite and non-renewable, unlike solar, wind, and hydroelectric power which are sustainable and replenishable resources.
