wind energy into thermal energy
thermal energy into electricity
Select all answers that are true of tidal energy:
It uses a constant source of energy (not intermittent)
Water can power the turbines even at slow speeds because it is so dense
It can disrupt ocean habitats when installed
High construction costs, but the equipment lasts for a long time
It can be placed anywhere
