Geothermal energy What is geothermal energy‚ and how can we use it in society? Geothermal energy is the use of the Earths very own energy. It’s renewable‚ clean and can range to easily acquirable hot springs on the surface or hot rock found a few miles below the surface. Or you can go a bit deeper and hit the extremities of the molten rock (magma). In the US around 80% of all geothermal hotspots are found on the western states i.e. Alaska and Hawaii. Wells are drilled deep into the underground

Optimization of Transformers in Solar Energy As renewable sources of energy are becoming more appealing for economical and environmental reasons‚ it is important to explore ways to optimize our production of these alternative forms of energy. Solar energy is one of the cleanest options for renewable energy but is less preferable due to the short term cost effectiveness of constructing mass solar plants. It is important to try and improve upon the existing technology of solar power production as

Energy Debate The use and costs of energy in the United States has been a debate that has been going on for many years and will only continue to go on for more. People believe that decreasing dependency on oil and using alternative sources will be a solution to the many problems we face. The costs are high to do the switch‚ but may pay for its self in the long run. This debate may never be solved because everyone has a different opinion. I feel as though both sides have valid viewpoints. I believe

Keeping in view the commercial and industrial consumption of oil and gas everyone is conscious to have some alternate resource for energy production. Wind is also one of the resources for the power generation. A wind turbine is a device that converts kinetic energy from the wind‚ also called wind energy‚ into mechanical energy; a process

Cell Energy Worksheet Answer the following questions: Cellular respiration: • What is cellular respiration and what are its three stages? The main function of cellular respiration is to generate ATP for cellular work; it is the process of harvesting chemical energy from organic fuel and converting it to ATP energy. The three stages of cell respiration include: Glycolysis‚ Citric Acid Cycle‚ and Electron Transport(Simon‚ Reece‚ & Dickery‚ 2010). • What is the role of glycolysis

Nuclear Energy 1. What is nuclear energy? Text Book Pg 80 2. Nuclear Fission :- In nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry‚ nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts (lighter nuclei)‚ often producing free neutrons and photons (in the form of gamma rays)‚ and releasing a tremendous amount of energy. The two nuclei produced are most often of comparable size‚ typically with a mass ratio around 3:2 for common fissile isotopes.[1][2].The smallest
