Quiz Description

Here we offer free educational quizzes. You will find questions ranging from 15-20 per quiz. These questions are aimed at boosting your knowledge both in the intellectual and educational level, as well as general.

In this particular quiz, we will be having a look at Energy resources. Before we begin, it is important to note that Energy is all around us, and we can’t do without it. For example, the light we use for vision during the day, artificial light as bulbs in the night, petrol for fuel, etc are all energy and are gotten from a source, hence energy resources.

An energy resource is any system capable of storing and retaining energy for use, for example, wind energy, Biomass, tidal energy, geothermal power, natural gas, and so many others. Energy resources are classified under renewable and nonrenewable energy resources. We will see that renewable energy resources have to do with the energy that cannot be exhausted over a very long time like wind energy, while non-renewable energy resources can be exhausted over time for example petrol for fuel.

You will find a lot of interesting questions under this topic if you take the quiz.
