Sources of Energy Class 10 Notes pdf Science Physics CBSE NCERT Chapter 14? Characteristics of a good fuel: (iv) High calorific value (v) Less smoke (vi) Less residue after burning (vii) Easy availability (viii) Inexpensive (ix) Easy to store and transport? Fossil fuels: were formed millions of years ago, when plants and animal remains got buried under the earth and were subjected to high temperature and pressure conditions. E.g.: Coal, Petroleum, etc. These fossil fuels are non renewable sources of energy and cause environmental problems due to pollution.? Thermal power plants: (i) Use coal, petroleum and natural gas to produce thermal electricity.

(ii) Electricity transmission is very efficient. (iii) The steam produced by burning the fossil fuels runs the turbine to produce electricity?

Hydro power plant: (Refer to figure 14.3, page no. 246 of N.C.E.R.T Text book) (i) It is the most conventional renewable energy source obtained from water falling from a great height. (ii) It is clean & non polluting source of energy. (iii) Dams are constructed to collect water flowing in high altitude rivers.

The stored water has a lot of potential energy. (iv) When water is allowed to fall from a height, potential energy changes to kinetic energy, which rotates the turbines to produce electricity.?

Disadvantages of Hydro power plant (i) Highly expensive to construct. (ii ) Dams cannot be constructed on all river sites. (iii) Large areas o human habitation and agricultural fields get submerged. (iv) People face social and environmental problems.?

Non conventional sources: (1) Bio mass: o It is the source of the conventionally used fuels that are used in our country. E.g.: Cow dung cakes, fire-wood, coal, charcoal o Bio gas: It is a mixture of gases produced during decomposition of bio mass in the absence of Oxygen. (Anaerobic Respiration). Methane is the major component of bio gas. O Bio gas plants: Animal dung, sewage, crop residues, vegetable wastes, poultry droppings, etc. Are used to produce Bio gas in Bio gas plants.

(Refer to figure 14.4, page no. 247 of N.C.E.R.T Text book) (2) Wind energy: o It can be converted into mechanical and electrical energy. O Kinetic energy of the wind is used in running of wind mills, which are used to lift water, grind grains, etc. O Wind mill- (Refer to figure 14.5, page no.

247 of N.C.E.R.T Text book) o Advantages: (i) Eco friendly (ii) Renewable o Disadvantages: (i) Wind speed not uniform always. (ii) Needs a large area to erect series of wind mills. (iii) Big amount of investment is needed.

(iv) Out put is less as compared to investment (3) Solar energy: o Solar radiations can be converted electricity through solar cells (photovoltaic cells). O Photovoltaic cells convert solar radiations directly into electricity through silicon solar cells. O Solar cells arrange on a large flat sheets form a solar panel.
