Tides are periodical rise and fall of sea water level. It is caused due to the gravitational pull of sun and moon and the rotation of the earth. During high…

Advantages of wind energy It is a renewable source of energy. It is non –polluting hence does not give rise to greenhouse gas or solid wastes. It has low running…

The flow of wind depends on different heating and cooling rates of land and water. The kinetic energy of the wind is converted into mechanical energy that can be used…

Solar energy is emitted from the sun due to the various thermonuclear reaction (nuclear fusion reactions occurring at very high temperature) taking place on the sun. It is the main…
