I in this essay intend to cover the set syllabus on "energy resourses" set over the easter holiday. Although it is in essay form I have labelled each specific question.
(a)I shall start by explaining exactly what a renewable energy resource is,which is a resource which will not run out in the foreseeable future.(b) Examples of renewable energy resources include biomass, wave ,hydro-electric ( flowing water) ,geothermal (the heat from the center of the earth) , wind , solar and food are all renewable. This diagram may help to explain this further
Coal
Gas
Oil
Uranium
Batteries
Food
Biomass
Wind
Waves
Flowing Water
Geothermal
Solar
2 The sun is the ultimate energy source having enough energy in it to collapse the very fabric of space to form a black hole (over 100 trillion tons of chemical energy). The sun in turn created many different energy sourses here on Earth in some way. The sun created coal a fossil fule millions of years ago when prehistoric plants took their energy from it through photosynthesis these plants then became part of a swamp releasing all their energy into it. Then after millions of years and hundreds of earth movements the swamp was compressed concentrating this energy into coal oil and gas.
