LEARNING ACTIVITY 3

A. Arrange the jumbled sentences into a proper text.

1. The kinetic energy is converted to electrical energy in a device called a generator.

2. Appliances such as lamps, televisions, heaters and audio equipment convert electrical energy
into light, heat and sound.

3. It is a store of chemical energy that came originally from the sun

4. When the coal is burned, the chemical energy is converted to heat energy, which is used to heat
water to make steam

5. The steam turns turbines. This produces kinetic energy.

6. Coal is the fossilized remains of plants that grew long ago.

Explanation text about How tsunami work

 A tsunami is a series of waves generated when water in a lake or a sea is rapidly displaced on a
massive scale. A tsunami can be generated when the sea floor abruptly deforms and vertically displaces
the overlying water. Such large vertical movements of the earth’s crust can occur at plate boundaries.
Subduction of earthquakes are particularly effective in generating tsunami, and occur where
denser oceanic plates slip under continental plates. As the displaced water mass moves under the
influence of gravity to regain its equilibrium, it radiates across the ocean like ripples on a pond.
Tsunami always bring great damage. Most of the damage is caused by the huge mass of water
behind the initial wave front, as the height of the sea keeps rising fast and floods powerfully into the
coastal area.
