Explanation

Heat of vaporization is the amount of heat energy required to convert a substance from its liquid state to its gaseous state, without changing its temperature.

This energy is used to break the intermolecular forces between the molecules, allowing them to escape into the gas phase.

Explanation

Heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to change the temperature of a substance by a given amount.

It is calculated as the product of the mass of the substance and its specific heat capacity:

Heat Capacity = mass x specific heat capacity

Explanation

Heat is a form of energy, specifically thermal energy, which is transferred from one body to another due to a temperature difference.

It is a type of kinetic energy, where the particles of a substance vibrate or move rapidly, generating heat.

Explanation

The renewable energy sources are:

• Water energy
• Wind energy
• Tidal energy
• Solar energy
• Hydroelectric
• Ocean energy
• Geothermal energy
• Biomass
• Biogas

The non-renewable energy sources are:

• Fossil fuels or Hydrocarbon fuel (Oil, Natural gas, Coal)
• Nuclear energy

Explanation

Coal, gas, and oil are all examples of fossil fuels, which are energy resources formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals over millions of years.

Fossil fuels are non-renewable sources of energy.

Additional Information:

• Tidal energy is energy generated from ocean tides
• Nuclear energy is energy generated from the nucleus of atoms
• Biomass energy is energy generated from organic matter (plants, wood, waste)

Explanation

Power is the work done per unit time, measured in watts (W).

It represents the rate at which energy is transferred or work is done.

Additional Information:

• Efficiency is the ratio of output to input energy.
• Energy is the ability to do work.
• Force is a push or pull that can cause an object to change its motion.

Explanation

Efficiency is the ratio of output to input, often expressed as a percentage.

It represents how much of the input energy is actually converted into useful output energy, with the rest being lost as waste or heat.

Key Points:

• Energy is the ability to do work.
• Work is the transfer of energy through a force applied over a distance.
• Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.

Explanation

Solar and wind energy are renewable sources of energy, meaning they are sustainable and will not run out.

Solar energy is generated from the sun's rays.

Wind energy is generated from the wind.

Explanation

Nuclear energy is the energy released from the nucleus of an atom, either through fission (splitting of atoms) or fusion (combination of atoms).

This energy is released in the form of heat and radiation, and is harnessed in nuclear power plants to generate electricity.

Key Points:

• Solar energy is energy from the sun
• Geothermal energy is energy from the Earth's internal heat
• Tidal energy is energy from ocean tides

Explanation

The potential energy (PE) of an object is calculated as:

PE = mass x gravity x height

= 1 kg x 10 m/s^2 x 1 m

= 10 Joule

So, the energy possessed by the body is 10 Joule.
