Answer:
1. B
2. A
3. D
4. E
5. C
Explanation:
Energy can be defined as the ability (capacity) to do work. The various forms of energy are solar energy, electrical energy, chemical energy, thermal energy, wind energy, nuclear energy etc.
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be transformed or converted from one form to another.
Some of the terminologies associated with energy includes the following;
1. Fuel cell: produces electrical energy chemically. It is a technology that operates just like batteries but do not need to be recharged since it doesn't run down. Also, it comprises of two (2) electrodes which are: positive electrode (cathode) and negative electrode (anode), with an electrolyte embedded in between them.
2. Alternative energy: energy sources that are still in development. These includes energy source other than fossil fuels. Some examples are petroleum, diesel and coal.
3. Energy conservation: includes lifestyle changes. It involves energy saving actions in order to reduce the level of energy consumption such as daylight savings, energy saving bulbs, etc.
4. Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC): produces electrical energy using the temperature difference between two layers of water.
5. Energy efficiency: percentage of energy that does useful work. It determines the amount of work that can be done at a particular time.
The answer would be the 4th option. (Rainwater soaking into the ground). Soil erosion is commonly caused by rainwater soaking into the ground.
Answer:
natural gas
Explanation:
Natural gas is the fossil fuel which can be stored underground due to the fact that, it is easily evaporated when exposed to the air. <em>To prevent its loss due to exposure, there is need to store it below its normal temperature thereby liquefying it (making it to exist as a liquid rather than gas). Also, transportation through the pipelines helps in its protection rather than open transportation using trucks due to its high volatile nature.</em>
Answer:
Explanation:
When a metamorphic rock exhibits a layered or banded appearance, it is said to exhibit a foliated texture.
In geology, foliation texture is a texture that has layerings in a repititive manner, usually in metamorphic rocks. Each layer vary in thickness. It can be as thin as 0.05cm or more than a meter in thickness.
