Renewable and Nonrenewable Energy

What is the difference between Renewable and Nonrenewable energy?

• Renewable energy can be replenished naturally, while Nonrenewable energy comes from sources that cannot be replaced quickly.

• Renewable energy is more expensive than Nonrenewable energy.

• Nonrenewable energy is derived from solar and wind sources.

• Renewable energy is always available, while Nonrenewable energy is only available during certain times.

What is Natural Gas?

• A renewable energy source derived from plants

• An invisible, odorless gas that is a fossil fuel

• A type of liquid fuel used in vehicles

• A solid mineral used for construction

What is Wind energy?

• Wind energy is energy obtained from the wind using turbines.

• Wind energy is energy generated from solar panels.

• Wind energy is energy produced by burning fossil fuels.

• Wind energy is energy harnessed from ocean waves.

Define Biomass energy.

• Biomass energy is energy created by burning plant and animal wastes.

• Biomass energy is energy derived from fossil fuels.

• Biomass energy is energy generated from solar panels.

• Biomass energy is energy produced by nuclear reactions.

Name two examples of Renewable energy.

• Wind Turbines and Geothermal energy

• Solar Panels and Hydroelectric energy

• Natural Gas and Coal

• Nuclear Energy and Biomass

True or False: The burning of fossil fuels causes the earth to warm more quickly because of greenhouse gases and pollution.

• True

• False

• It has no effect

• It cools the earth

What is the role of energy conservation?

• To increase energy consumption for economic growth.

• To reduce energy consumption to save resources and protect the environment.

• To promote the use of fossil fuels for energy production.

• To encourage wastefulness in energy usage.

What is the impact of using Nonrenewable resources?

• They are abundant and sustainable.

• They can lead to depletion and environmental damage.

• They have no significant impact on the environment.

• They are easily replaceable with renewable resources.

What are Nonrenewable resources?

• Resources that can be replenished naturally over time.

• Resources that are used faster than they can be replaced.

• Resources that are abundant and widely available.

• Resources that are only found in specific locations.

What is Renewable energy?

• Energy that comes from fossil fuels

• Energy that comes from resources that are naturally replenished, such as sunlight, wind, and water.

• Energy that is produced in nuclear power plants

• Energy that is generated from non-renewable resources
