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.
