What are renewable & non- renewable energy resources?

Question

What are renewable energy resources? Give three examples

What are non-renewable energy resources? Give two examples

btw this is out of curiosity i never really listened in science... =]

Answer 1

Renewable energies are those which can be renew like as solar energy, hydal energy etc

Un-Renewable sources are coal, petroleum compounds, Gas etc.

Answer 2

Renewable energy is energy generated from natural resources—such as sunlight[2], wind, rain, tides and geothermal heat—which are renewable (naturally replenished). Renewable energy technologies include solar power, wind power, hydroelectricity, micro hydro, biomass and biofuels.

Non-renewable energy is energy taken from "finite resources that will eventually dwindle, becoming too expensive or too environmentally damaging to retrieve", [1] as opposed to renewable energy sources, which "are naturally replenished in a relatively short period of time." [2]

Fossil fuels:

Coal exists as a mined solid.

Petroleum is a liquid, and forms the basis for heating oil, diesel fuel, and gasoline.

Natural gas is commonly also referred to just as gas. It is mostly methane, and most of the additional material is removed before use as a fuel.

Nuclear energy fuel for fission is mined as Uranium ore, see Renewable energy#Nuclear power.

Goodluck! Sometimes I agree science is BORING!
