2 Energy Resources

3 What are Natural Resources? Supplies from nature. Everything on or around the Earth that we use to survive. For example: Coal Oil Iron Timber Rivers Animals Sunlight

4 How do we classify natural resources? Renewable resources Nonrenewable resources Inexhaustible resources

5 Renewable Resources Things that can be replaced in a relatively short amount of time. We must be wise about how we use these items! We could overuse, pollute, or destroy them too fast for them to be replaced. Examples: plants, animals, water, air, soil

6

7 Nonrenewable Resources Cannot be replaced in a short amount of time. Made from dead plants and animals millions of years ago. Once we use them up, they are gone forever. We are using them faster than nature can replace them. Examples: fossil fuels (oils, natural gas, coal) and minerals

8 Inexhaustible Resources Those things that can be replaced as fast as they are used. No matter how much we use, we can never run out. Examples: sunlight, wind, and ocean tides.

9 List some things that come from the Earth (natural resources) that help us live our lives. Cross off any items that you have on your list that another group mentions. ObjectNatural Resource MoneyTrees (paper) or minerals (coins) PencilsTrees (wood) SkateboardTrees (wood) and minerals (steel) ClothesPlants (cotton) GlassSand CarMinerals (metal) and fossil fuels SidewalksRocks and minerals GasFossil fuels

10 Sort the Resources (use your Smart Board) Renewable ResourcesNonrenewable Resources Inexhaustible Resources XXXXXXXX Oil Animals Water Soil Wind Coal Natural Gas Plants Gasoline Rocks Solar Energy Tides Minerals

11 Take NOTES HERE and Remember:

12 Check your Understanding without using notes!

16 Renewable Way to Go

17 Wind Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

18 Way to Go

19 Plants Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

20 Renewable Way to Go

21 Coal Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

22 Nonrenewable Way to Go

23 Water Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

24 Renewable Way to Go

25 Natural Gas Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

26 Nonrenewable Way to Go

27 Ocean Tides Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

28 Way to Go

29 Animals Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

30 Renewable Way to Go

31 Minerals Renewable Nonrenewable Inexhaustible

32 Nonrewable Way to Go

33 Which of these is an inexhaustible resource? A B C D Coal Gold trees Wind

34 -D Way to Go !

35 Trees are a renewable resource because- A B C D we can plant more to replace the ones we use. someday we will use them all. they grow so tall. there are so many of them.

36 -A Way to Go

37 Oxygen is a gas that we need to breathe. It is found in our air. Which type of resource is oxygen? A B C D renewable nonrenewable Both renewable and nonrenewable Solar energy

38 -A Way to Go

39 Which of these would correctly complete this chart? A B C D plants wind soil coal Nonrenewable Resources Inexhaustible Resources oilsunlight coal? Natural gasOcean tides

40 -B Way to Go

41 On the next slide ….. »Go thru EACH WORD AROUND YOUR GROUP AND CHOOSE WHERE IT WOULD CORRECTLY FIT IN THE CONCEPT MAP DIAGRAMS…

44 WHAT is Biomass? p696 Is a Main source of Renewable Energy for more than half the world. Ex: wood, dried field crops and dried fecal materials from animals. One way to produce is to plant large numbers of rapidly growing plants that can be burned, converted to gas, or fermented for fuel. DISADVANTAGE: They release CO2 when burned.

45 DISCUSS- WHERE and WHY.. Different Energy is USED. QS: What kind of ENERGY IS USED… BY RIVERS? BY COASTLINES? IN DESERTS OR LOW LATITUDES? IN DOMESTIC COUNTRIES? P698 IN INDUSTRIALIZED COUNTRIES?

46 Radon is a toxic gas that may cause cancer..

47 Fission vs Fusion (sun) Fission- splitting of atomic nuclei. Lots of energy produced from a small mass Fusion- combining atomic H nuclei. Requires high temp, stars, SUN

48 Fission splits an atoms nucleus Definition: a nuclear reaction in which an atomic nucleus is split into two smaller parts producing energy.. CONTROLLED: – EX: Nuclear Power Plant UNCONTROLLED: –In reactor = meltdown! –Ex: Atomic bomb!

49 Fusion Definition: a nuclear reaction in which the nuclei of two atoms fuse or COMBINE to form a larger nucleus. This give off Energy.. Form of heat. Called a thermonuclear reaction – occurs only at very high temps lowest temperature required for fusion: 40,000,000 K EX: occurs constantly in SUN

50 DO YOU KNOW QS? Take notes. 1.Which of the naturally occurring elements is used in nuclear fission? 2.Why is nuclear fusion dangerous? 3.Which nuclear reaction does the sun produce?

51 ANSWERS 1. Uranium-235 2. Cause dangerous radiation 3. Nuclear fusion

52 QS: What is the ULTIMATE source of Energy on Earth???

53 ANSWER The SUN!
