Question

1. One of the methods used to reach deep reservoirs of geothermal energy is?

hydraulic fracturing

hydroplaning

hydraulic lift

nuclear fusion

2. Conversion of geothermal into electrical energy requires reservoir temperatures of?

greater than 850 degrees F, 650 degrees F, 450 degrees F or 250 degrees F

3. Which of the following fuels can be used to power vehicles?

Biogas

Biodiesel

Ethanol

All of the above

4. Biodiesel is made from what?

Plant oils, ethanol, methanol, or Starcehs?

5. Which of the following are NOT a type of fuel cell?

Molten carbonate fuel cell

Phosphoric acid fuel cell

sodium carbonate fuel cell

micro fuel cell

Explanation / Answer

1) hydraulic fracturing

In hydraulic fracturing fracking fluid is injected at high pressure into deep reservoirs which makes cracks in the rocks there by releasing geothermal energy to the top.

3) All of the above

All of Biogas , Biodiesel and Ethanol can be used to power vehicles.

4) Plant oils

Biodiesel is made from plant oils like canola oil, jatropha oil etc
