Answer to Column 1 $100

Name the three fossil fuels and what they are formed

from.

Column 1 Question $100

Natural GasPetroleum Oil

Coal

Organic material(dead plants and animals)

Answer to Column 1 $200

How is nuclear power formed?

Column 1 Question $200

By splitting the nucleus of a uranium atom (fission).

Answer to Column 1 $300

How long do fossil fuels take to form?

Column 1 Question $300

Millions of years

Answer to Column 1 $400

Why are fossil fuels and nuclear energy called

nonrenewable resources?

Column 1 Question $400

There is a limited supply. They cannot be replaced

in a person’s lifetime.

Answer to Column 2 $100

Name the renewable resources we studied.

Column 2 Question $100

SolarBiomass

GeothermalWind

Hydropower

Answer to Column 2 $200

What type of colors absorb solar/light energy the

best?

Column 2 Question $200

Dark colors absorb solar/light energy best.

Answer to Column 2 $300

Why do we call wind, hydropower, geothermal, biomass, and solar energy

renewable resources?

Column 2 Question $300

They are abundant.

They are renewed within a person’s lifetime.

Answer to Column 2 $400

Choose one renewable resource and explain how it

is always available.

Example: Biomass = available as long as wastes are decomposing.

Column 2 Question $400

Hydropower = Water CycleWind Power = Uneven heating and cooling of the Earth.Solar = Sun is always shiningGeothermal = Heat from the

Earth’s core

Answer to Column 3 $100

What turns the turbine?

Column 3 Question $100

Fossil Fuels, and Geothermal = Steam

Hydropower and Wind = flowing water or air

Answer to Column 3 $200

Which resource in most used in Northeast Ohio to

create electricity?

Why?

Column 3 Question $200

Coal

Most abundant in Northeast Ohio.

Answer to Column 3 $300

Explain how electricity is created using Solar

Power.

Column 3 Question $300

Sunlight strikes a solar cell, electrons move

around, this begins the electric current.

Answer to Column 3 $400

Explain how electricity is created using hydropower.

Column 3 Question $400

The sun causes the water cycle which replenishes the Earth’s water. The water flows (either

down stream or down from a water tower) it turns a wheel turbine which

spins an electric generator creating electricity that is sent

through power lines.

Answer to Column 4 $100

Why is it necessary to reduce our use of

nonrenewable resources.

Column 4 Question $100

They are limited.

They are detrimental to the environment.

Answer to Column 4 $200

What should we use instead of nonrenewable

resources.

Column 4 Question $200

Use renewable resources, especially those that are in abundance where energy is

needed.

Example: Pennsylvania = Cow manure

Answer to Column 4 $300

How can we conserve our energy use?

Column 4 Question $300

Possible choices:

reduce, reuse, recycle

Turn electric devices off when not using them.

Answer to Column 4 $400

Identify 5 things that you do to conserve electricity.

Column 4 Question $400

Possible choices:

reduce, reuse, recycle

Turn electric devices off when not using them.
