2 World energy sources

3 1000 800 600 400 200 OTHER SOURCES WIND NUCLEAR FOSSIL FUELS HYDRO Final Jeopardy

4 Hydroelectricity 200 Points This country is the largest producer of hydroelectricity in the world.

5 Back to question board What is Canada? Hydroelectricity 200 Points

6 This is the source of energy for a hydroelectric dam. Hydroelectricity 400 Points

7 What is falling water? Back to question board Hydroelectricity 400 Points

8 These spinning objects connected to electric generators convert mechanical energy into electricity. Hydroelectricity 600 Points

9 What are turbines? Back to question board Hydroelectricity 600 Points

10 Canada generates about this percentage of electricity using hydroelectric dams. Hydroelectricity 800 Points

11 What is 60%? Back to question board Hydroelectricity 800 Points

12 What structure can be built to help fish get around a hydroelectric dam? Hydroelectricity 1000 Points

13 What is a fish ladder? Back to question board Hydroelectricity 1000 Points

14 Fossil Fuels 200 Points These are hydrocarbons found within the top layer of the earth’s crust.

15 Back to question board What are fossil fuels? Fossil Fuels 200 Points

16 The burning of fossil fuels releases this greenhouse gas into the atmosphere. Fossil Fuels 400 Points

17 Back to question board What is carbon dioxide (CO 2 )? Fossil Fuels 400 Points

18 This fossil fuel made the Industrial Revolution possible. Fossil Fuels 600 Points

19 Back to question board What is coal? Fossil Fuels 600 Points

20 This theory states that fossil fuels are the remains of ancient plants and animals. Fossil Fuels 800 Points

21 Back to question board What is the biogenic theory? Fossil Fuels 800 Points

22 This fossil fuel deposit in Alberta covers an area roughly the size of the state of Florida. Fossil Fuels 1000 Points

23 Back to question board What is the Athabasca Tar (Oil) Sands? Fossil Fuels 1000 Points

24 Nuclear power plants use this atomic element to generate heat and boil water into steam. Nuclear 200 Points

25 Back to question board What is uranium? Nuclear 200 Points

26 At the centre of a nuclear reactor are these, which are about the size of the tip of your finger. Nuclear 400 Points

27 Back to question board What are fuel pellets? Nuclear 400 Points

28 Canadian nuclear reactors use fuel mined in this country. Nuclear 600 Points

29 Back to question board What is Canada? Nuclear 600 Points

30 When atoms split and release neutrons, it is known as this. Nuclear 800 Points

31 Back to question board What is nuclear fission? Nuclear 800 Points

32 In Canada, about this percent of electricity generation comes from nuclear energy. Nuclear 1000 Points

33 Back to question board What is 17%? Nuclear 1000 Points

34 Wind turbines convert this into electrical energy. Wind 200 Points

35 Back to question board What is kinetic energy of moving air (wind)? Wind 200 Points

36 Windmills used to generate electricity are better known by this name. Wind 400 Points

37 Back to question board What are wind turbines? Wind 400 Points

38 Several wind turbines are often arranged in groups called this. Wind 600 Points

39 Back to question board What are wind farms? Wind 600 Points

40 On average, wind turbines are about this percent efficient. Wind 800 Points

41 Back to question board What is 20-25%? Wind 800 Points

42 The Pickering Nuclear Power Generating Station generates as much electricity as this number of 2 MW wind turbines. Wind 1000 Points

43 Back to question board What is 2 000? Wind 1000 Points

44 This is a device which converts light into electricity. Other Sources 200 Points

45 Back to question board What is a solar cell or photoelectric cell? Other Sources 200 Points

46 Wells are drilled deep into the Earth to harness this type of energy. Other Sources 400 Points

47 Back to question board What is geothermal? Other Sources 400 Points

48 This energy source can be used to replace coal in some types of generating stations. Other Sources 600 Points

49 Back to question board What is biomass (plant material)? Other Sources 600 Points

50 This type of power plant uses energy from moving ocean water. Other Sources 800 Points

51 Back to question board What is a tidal barrage? Other Sources 800 Points

52 This device works like a windmill, except under water. Other Sources 1000 Points

53 Back to question board What is a tidal stream generator? Other Sources 1000 Points

54 The Category is: Nuclear Energy

55 This is the number of CANDU reactors currently (2014) operating in Canada.

56 What is 19?
