What energy is used to generate electricity in China?
China mainly use non-renewable sources of energy such as coal. However, they are acknowledging and trying to increase the use of renewable sources of energy. The largest source of renewable energy is hydroelectric power from dams such as the Three Gorges Dams. Lack of energy is starting to become a exponential problem in China, and in cities such as Shanghai, certain factories are only allowed to operate during night time so there will enough electricity during the day time.
What form do things take when they freeze?
solid. the atoms lose energy and change into a linear arrangement
Differentiate between conventional and non-conventional sources of energy?
Conventional (or usual) sources of energy (electricity) are coal, oil, wood, peat, uranium.Non-conventional (or unusual) sources of energy include:Solar powerHydro-electric power (dams in rivers)Wind powerTidal powerOcean wave powerGeothermal power (heat from deep under the ground)Ocean thermal power (the difference in heat between shallow and deep water)Biomass (burning of vegetation to stop it producing methane)Biofuel (producing ethanol (petroleum) from plantsWe hope that all the conventional sources will become rare, endangered and extinct, as they produce lots of carbon dioxide that adds to the greenhouse effect in the atmosphere (uranium leaves different dangerous byproducts).And we similarly hope that all the non-conventional sources will become conventional, common, and everyday, as they are all free, green and emit no carbon dioxide (well, biomass does, but it prevents the production of methane which is a greenhouse gas 21 times more dangerous that CO2).
Why is the US trying to find different sources of energy?
We are going to completely run out of fossil fuels by 2050. That's less then 40 years to find a replacement for gas, a fossil fuel that has become a staple in the daily function of human life.
What is the Kinentic or potential energy that is associated with the motion or position of an object?
Kinetic energy is energy of motion. Potential energy is energy of position, or stored energy.

How does mechanical engineers distroy the environment?
We could stop working on wind turbines and other renewable energy sources. We could stop trying to make machinery more energy efficient. We could vote republican.
Why cant you renew a nonrenewable resource?
A non-renewable source is a product of the Earth that we use as an energy source (such as crude oil). We find these particular non-renewable sources from under the groun and in the sea, where we extract it and sell it as energy. Eventually, these resources will run out, as we are extracting at a faster pace than crude oil generates (crude oil is made from decomposed animals and plants over millions of years). This is why we are trying to use renewable sources such as wind energy. The wind will never 'run out'.
Why are scientists trying to make energy out of wind and water?
To conserve non-renewable resources.
What two countries are trying to reduce their use of oil?
Two countries trying to reduce their use of oil are Germany and the United Kingdom. Both countries have set ambitious goals to transition to renewable energy sources and reduce their dependence on oil for transportation and electricity generation.
Can you write me a persuasive letter in promoting renewable energy?
No, WikiAnswers will not do your homework for you. That's cheating. Make a list of all the positive things about renewable energy -- you're going to have to do some work and research this using your textbook! -- now pretend you're telling a friend all about these things and trying to convince them to use renewable energy. There's your letter.
Why are oil and natural gas primary sources of energy?
they are primary sources of energy because we are still trying to figure out ways to make energy we can use all the time and would not harm the enviorment and our health.
How is the Philippines responding to climate change?
The Philippines is trying to mitigate the effects of climate change by reducing the sources of greenhouse gases (GHG) and enhancing GHG sinks. Initiatives toward this end are reforestation programs, energy conservation programs, use of non-fossil fuel energy sources in the transport sector, and clean development mechanism projects.
What effect have non-renewable sources of energy on the environment?
They get used up until there are none left.Some (energy sources like fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas)) emit pollution as well as carbon dioxide (CO2), a dangerous greenhouse gas.
Which countries are adopting alternate energy means?
Most are trying. Denmark has a lot of wind power. Iceland derives considerable amounts of energy from geothermal sources.
Peaceful uses of nuclear power?
better energy sources for the upcoming future. an example to further study in trying to save the earth
How new sources of energy specifically coal contributed to the Industrial Revolution?
Don't cheat on your homework because that's what I'm trying to do ;)
