- Q1What is direct use of geothermal energy?Extracting magma from the EarthGenerating electricity in power plantsInjecting water into the groundUsing geothermal energy for heating and non-electricity purposes30sSC9.E.1
- Q2Which of these is NOT a direct use of geothermal energy?Running a nuclear reactorIndustrial ProcessesSpas and ResortsSpace Heating30s
- Q3In what applications is geothermal energy used for industrial processes?Mining operationsAutomotive assemblyAgriculture (drying crops)Cooling power plants30s
- Q4What is a common use of hot springs in spas and resorts?IrrigationTourism and recreationDrinking water supplyCooling systems30s
- Q5What does a dry steam power plant utilize to generate electricity?Hot waterSolar energySecondary fluidsSteam directly from underground30s
- Q6How does a dry steam plant generate electricity?Steam drives a secondary fluidSteam heats water, which turns a turbineBy using photovoltaic cellsSteam directly turns turbines30s
- Q7What does a flash steam power plant use to generate electricity?SunlightHot water converted into steamDirect use of steam reservoirsMolten rock30s
- Q8In a flash steam plant, how is the hot water converted to steam?By reducing pressureUsing solar energyUsing a heat exchangerThrough a chemical reaction30s
- Q9What is the key feature of a binary cycle power plant?It transfers heat to a secondary fluidIt uses only steamIt directly uses magmaIt works like solar panels30s
- Q10Why are binary cycle plants useful?They utilize solar energy as primary sourceThey use moderate temperature geothermal resourcesThey utilize high pressure steamThey utilize high temperature geothermal resources30s
- Q11What is the function of turbines in geothermal power plants?To convert the kinetic energy of steam or hot water to mechanical energyTo convert heat to electricityTo convert mechanical energy to electrical energyTo use geothermal heat to generate steam30s
- Q12What do generators in geothermal power plants do?Convert hot water to steamConvert steam into waterConvert mechanical energy into electrical energyConvert heat to electricity30s
- Q13A remote village has access to a low-temperature hot water resource. Which of the described geothermal technologies would be most suitable to provide electricity and heating to the village?Binary cycle plant for electricity, and direct use for heatingEGS, as it is more efficient than hot waterFlash steam plantDry steam plant30s
- Q14A geothermal power plant operator needs to decide between developing a flash steam plant or a binary cycle plant in a location where they have hot water. Given the characteristics of these technologies, what factor should most significantly influence this decision?The amount of hot waterThe amount of available land.The cost of constructionThe temperature of the hot water source30s
- Q15The town of "Geothermia" is considering a geothermal project to meet its growing energy needs. Data indicates that the town has a large steam reservoir and a moderate temperature hot water reservoir. Based on the types of geothermal power plants described, how can "Geothermia" optimize its energy production for both electricity and heating?Develop flash steam plants as a primary energy source.Build both a dry steam plant for electricity and use hot water for direct use.Only develop dry steam plant to meet all energy demands.Build both binary cycle and a dry steam plant to fully utilize the geothermal potential.30s
