ENERGY BY: CHARLIE WIND POWER GEOTHERMAL ENERGY HYDRO POWER BIOMASS SOLAR POWER ENERGY TRANSFORMATION EXPERIMENT 1 EXPERIMENT 2 CONCLUSIONS CREDITS

GEOTHERMAL COMES FROM INSIDE THE EARTH HEAT FROM THE EARTH MAKES STEAM AND TURNS TURBINES TO MAKE ELECTRICITY % OF US ENERGY COMES FROM GEOTHERMAL SOURCES IT IS RENEWABLE HARD TO GET TO.

SOLAR IT COMES FROM THE SUN IN THE FORM OF LIGHT ENERGY IT IS CAPTURED IN SOLAR PANELS AND TRANSFERRED TO ELECTRICITY % OF US ENERGY COMES FROM SOLAR ENERGY IT IS RENEWABLE AND GREEN IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO GET SOLAR PANELS.

NUCLEAR COMES FROM URANIUM ATOM’S NUCUELS NUCLEAR REACTORS SPLIT THE URANIUM NUCLEUS AND FORMS ENERGY. 20% OF US ENERGY COMES FROM NUCLEAR ENERGY YOU GET A LOT OF ENERGY FROM A SMALL AMOUNT OF FUEL. IT PRODUCES RADIOACTIVE WASTE AND IT TAKES THOUSANDS OF YEARS FOR THIS WASTE TO GO AWAY.

HYDRO POWER HYDROPOWER COMES FROM WATER AND ITS KINETIC ENERGY. WATER SPINS THE TURBINES AND THEY COLLECT ENERGY AND CHANGE IT TO ELECTRICITY ____% OF US ENERGY COMES FROM HYDROPOWER HYDROPOWER IS RENEWABLE IT MAKES FLOODS ABOVE THE DAMS AND ENDANGERS WILDLIFE.

WIND FROM UNEVEN HEATING ON THE EARTH’S SURFACE HUGE TURBINES CATCH THE WIND’S KINETIC ENERGY AND CHANGE IT TO ELETRICITY % OF US ENERGY COMES FROM THE WIND IT IS RENEWABLE NOT PORTABLE

BIOMASS BIOMASS ENERGY COMES FROM PLANT AND ANIMAL MATERIAL THAT HAS DECOMPOSED IT IS BURNED TO MAKE ELECTRICITY ______% OF US ENERGY COMES FROM BIOMASS FUEL IT IS RENEWABLE ITS BURNING MAKES SMOKE

FOSSIL FUELS FROM DEAD PLANTS AND ANIMALS FROM MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO IT IS CHANGED TO ELECTRICITY AT HUGE REFINERIES % OF US ENERGY COMES FROM FOSSIL FUELS IT MAKES A LOT OF ENERGY IT IS NON-RENEWABLE AND MAKES GREENHOUSE GASES.

ENERGY TRANSFORMATION CHANGING ENERGY TO ELECTRICITY

EXPERIMENT 1

EXPERIMENT 2

CONCLUSIONS I LEARNED ENERGY CAN BE TRANSFORMED TO ELECTRICITY. WE CHANGED SOLAR POWER TO ELECTRICITY WITH A SOAR PANEL. WE CHANGED WIND POWER TO ELECTRICITY WITH A FAN.
