Resources

• Renewable resources- a natural resource (such as
  wood and water) that can be replenished or
  replaced by natural processes
• Non-renewable resource- a resource which cannot
  be replaced once it is used up, for example
  fossil fuels(oil, natural gas and coal).

16
Sustainable energy

• Energy that can be replenished within a humans
  lifetime and causes no long-term damage to the
  environment.

17
Forms of Energy

• Mechanical energy The energy of motion used to
  perform work. Mechanical energy can be either
  kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential
  energy(stored energy)
• Electrical energy- Electricity is energy
  transported by the movement of electrons

18
Forms of Energy

• Thermal energy the movement of energy from one
  substance to another in the form of heat.

19
How is electricity generated?

• A Generator is a device that converts mechanical
  energy into electrical energy. The process is
  based on the relationship between magnetism and
  electricity.

How is home electricity generated?

• A turbine converts the kinetic energy of a moving
  fluid (liquid or gas) to mechanical energy. Steam
  turbines have a series of blades mounted on a
  shaft against which steam is forced, rotating the
  generator.
