Wind Hydropower And Tidal Jeopardy Jeopardy Template

Hydropower	Tidal & Wave Power	Wind Power
100 What is the most common way to harness hydroelectric energy? Dams	100 What energy is captured for wind and tidal power? Kinetic Energy	100 What is the most common way to harness wind energy? Wind turbines	100 yo yo
200 How is energy generated in a dam? Water that rushes in from its reservoir spins a turbine, which then generates energy.	200 How is the energy generated? By pushing water through the turbines.	200 Where are wind turbines most commonly found? Vast open fields and farms
300 Name 3 advantages of relying on hydroelectric power. Can name any 3: 1. affordable 2. low CO2 emissions 3. low air pollution in temperate areas 4. large global untapped potential 5. medium/high net energy	300 What is one advantage of tidal power that wave power doesn't have? The tides are predictable allowing for a constant energy source.	300 How is energy generated in a wind turbine? Wind blows blades that are connected to a drive shaft that turns a generator, generating power.
400 Name 3 disadvantages of building dams. Could name any 3: 1. reservoirs emit methane from decomposing organic matter 2. dams become unusable after silt builds up in its reservoir 3. displaces communities 4. disrupts downstream ecosystems	400 What country has the biggest tidal/wave power plant? South Korea	400 Name three advantages of wind turbines? 1. Low carbon dioxide emissions 2. Low air pollution 3. Perpetual (inexhaustible) 4. Efficient use of landscape 5. Low operating costs 6. More efficient than coal
500 What is biofouling? The accumulation of plants, algae, and small animals on structures underwater.	500 Name all four disadvantages of wind turbines 1. Expensive upfront cost 2. Unpredictable 3. Noise and visual pollution 4. Harms a lot of birds
