What is Hydroelectric power?
Moving water can be used to generate electricity in hydroelectric power stations.
How is electricity form power stations made?
A generator contains magnets which can be rotated; as their magnetic lines of force pass through surrounding wires, they generate electricity. In order to create the necessary rotation, various mechanisms are used, such as steam turbines (steam can be made using either fossil fuels or nuclear power), wind, or flowing water. Photoelectric power is made in an entirely different way, but that is not used at power stations.
What man made objects are in the therospere?
The thermosphere is an atmospheric layer where man-made objects such as satellites and space stations orbit the Earth. These objects can be found at altitudes ranging from 80 km to 550 km above the Earth's surface.
What Is the trend you see in the data for atmospheric pollutants since 1970?
Since 1970, there has been a general decline in many atmospheric pollutants in developed countries, largely due to stricter environmental regulations and advancements in technology. For instance, levels of sulfur dioxide, lead, and particulate matter have significantly decreased. However, some regions still struggle with rising pollutants like nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds, especially in developing nations as industrialization continues. Overall, while progress has been made, challenges remain in achieving cleaner air globally.
Can you stop acid rain?
No, not entirely because some of it is natural. However, it is possible to do stuff about the pollutants that man puts into the atmosphere that cause man made acid rain. In England now, all the power stations must 'scrub' the gasses coming out of the chimney to remove the sulphur dioxide which causes acid rain (it is tuned into drywall).
Are all pollutants man made?
No, pollutants can be natural. Volcanoes often emit sulfur dioxide for instance.
Why were Nuclear Power Stations made?
Nuclear power stations were designed to generate electricity by harnessing the energy produced from nuclear fission reactions. They were developed to provide a reliable and sustainable source of energy that can help reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease greenhouse gas emissions.
Why are pollutants in the sea not made harmless by dilution?
Pollutants in the sea are not made harmless by dilution because large bodies of water have the capacity to dilute and disperse wastes :) Hope that helps you out!
What are docking stations made of?
metal?
Does Romania have any man made landmarks?
castles, hydroelectric power stations, channels, bridges, railways, highways, monasteries, churches, the Parliament House, etc.
What is Venuses atmospheric made of?
carbon dioxide
How is acid rain made worse?
By accumulating pollutants from the air as it falls .
