Power is...

Select one or more of the following:

  • The rate of energy transferred or the work done

  • Work done/time

  • Wasted energy/useful energy input

Explanation

1

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

When energy is , some energy is . This to the environment.

For example, leads to the transfer of energy into a thermal store. This heat then dissipates.

Question 11 of 17

1

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

Unwanted energy transfers can be reduced by:

Thermal
Walls in homes

Explanation

Question 12 of 17

1

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

An energy resource is used to and other useful forms of energy.

Energy resource rotates a
->
This rotates a in a magnetic field (a )
->
This produces an electric current: an energy .

Explanation

Question 13 of 17

1

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

Fossil Fuels are burnt to heat a fluid, producing and turning a turbine.

In volcanic places, magma has lots of energy. The magma heats , which heats water in pipes. This rotates a turbine and is known as energy.

Holding water above the ground is a store of potential energy. Allowing it to fall rotates a turbine. This is known as power.

Waves and tides are stores of energy. They can rotate turbines.

Explanation

Question 14 of 17

1

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

In a nuclear reactor, the energy stored in the of atoms is released as energy. Some of this heats up which then heats up a fluid. This creates steam and rotates a turbine.

Solar Cells absorb the waves from the . Some create an current without a generator, while some use the heat from the Sun to boil water, create and rotate a turbine.

Explanation

Question 15 of 17

1

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

The Sun is the original source of energy for:
F fuels
S Power
W Energy
Wind
H

Electricity use ( increased, decreased ) in the UK through the ( 20th, 19th ) Century as population ( increased, decreased ).

Electricity use has ( decreased, increased ) in the ( 21st, 22nd, 20th ) Century as appliances have become more ( efficient, powerful ).

Explanation

Question 17 of 17

1

Select from the dropdown lists to complete the text.

The UK government planned to draw ( 15, 20, 50 )% of energy from renewable resources by 2020 due to ( public pressure, economic pressure, Bojo ).

The problems with renewable resources are
It costs ( more, less )
It is less ( reliable, fun )
( Politics, Rugby ) can interfere
