    and businesses‚ geothermal power plants use superheated fluids from the earth’s geothermal energy to generate electricity. When magma heats up the water from underground‚ it creates superheated fluids. When these super-heated fluids reach the surface they will be turned into steam. This steam will then power a turbine‚ which will in turn power a conductor. The conductor will then produce electrical energy. ¬¬¬¬¬¬To create enough steam to power the steam turbines‚ the superheated fluid must

    Contents[Show] The energy of an object is its ability to do work. Energy is the cause and work is its effect. Therefore both work and energy have the same units‚ which is joule (J) in the SI system and erg in the CGS system. Energy is also a scalar quantity. Energy exists in many forms. Examples Mechanical energy which is either in the form of potential energy or kinetic energy or a combination of the both‚ electrical energy‚ light energy‚ thermal energy‚ nuclear energy and sound energy etc. Potential

    release of nuclear energy occurs when the nuclei of atoms are changed. Hydrogen and uranium are two kinds of matter used to produce nuclear energy. In a nuclear reaction‚ the tremendous binding energy inside a hydrogen or uranium nucleus is released. Nuclear energy is released during atomic fission‚ when uranium nuclei are split. It is also released during fusion‚ when hydrogen nuclei combine to form a helium nucleus. In fission and fusion‚ nuclear energy produces thermal energy‚ which is given

    Potential Energy Potential Energy is a type of energy that does not involve motion. It is the energy that is stored up. The more work done to change an object’s position or shape‚ the more potential energy it has. For example‚ a person on a ladder has more potential energy than a person on the ground because they have done more work to get up there. Kinetic Energy Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion. The more work an object has done‚ the more kinetic energy it has. the amount of kinetic
