Energy Power And Mechanics
Across
- 2. Wind energy is a form of solar energy. Wind energy (or wind power) describes the process by which wind is used to generate electricity. Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical power. A generator can convert mechanical power into electricity
- 4. an industry term for getting energy by burning Organic material that comes from plants and animals. Plants or plant-based materials that are not used for food or feed, and are specifically called lignocellulosic biomass.
- 6. physical power or strength possessed by a living being
- 9. pertaining to the generation and distribution of electricity derived from the energy of falling water or any other hydraulic source.
- 10. thermal energy generated and stored in the Earth. ... The adjective geothermal originates from the Greek roots γη (ge), meaning earth, and θερμος (thermos), meaning hot.
- 11. a part, as a disk, wheel, or section of a shaft, having cut teeth of such form, size, and spacing that they mesh with teeth in another part to transmit or receive force and motion.
Down
- 1. the branch of physics that deals with the mechanical properties of air and other gases.
- 2. exertion or effort directed to produce or accomplish something; labor; toil.
- 3. the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it, used in assessing the performance of a machine.
- 5. the energy released during nuclear fission or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity.
- 7. radiant energy emitted by the sun.
- 8. Tidal power, also called tidal energy, is a form of hydropower that converts the energy of tides into useful forms of power – mainly electricity. Although not yet widely used, tidal power has potential for future electricity generation. Tides are more predictable than wind energy and solar power
