Main energy resources on earth - Fossil fuels, nuclear,


biofuel, wind, hydro-electric, tidal and solar.
We mostly use non-renewable resources to generate
electricity because most renewable resources are not
available all the time.
Most uses of non-renewable resources cause pollution, such
as burning fossil fuels.
Pressure decreases with increasing altitude. At higher
heights, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface
than a similar surface at lower levels.
Force is the product of mass and acceleration of an object
and has the units of Newton (N). Also, the units of pressure
are Newton per square meter.
If the up thrust is less than the weight of the object, the
object will sink. If the density of the object is greater than the
density of the fluid, the object can never displace enough
fluid to create an up thrust that will hold its weight up, so it
sinks.
