Examples of renewable energy are: (i) Solar energy (ii) Wave energy (iii) Hydro-energy from hydroelectric dams that have generators turned by water to produce electricity (e.g. Kanji dam, Shiroro dam). (iv) Biomass/Biofuels (v) Wind energy which is a source of energy used to run windmills to produce electricity. Wind power is not common in Nigeria as in overseas countries. Sun, wind and water will always exist and hence termed renewable energy. <h3><strong>Uses/Advantages of Renewable Energy</strong></h3> Renewable energy is useful or advantageous for the following reasons:

Everything in the world are built up from these elements. There are about one hundred and twelve (112) elements known today. Scientists use short forms called symbols to represent elements as shown below. <h2>Elements and their Symbols</h2>

<h1>WORK, ENERGY AND POWER</h1> CONTENT <ol> <li>Meaning of Work, Energy and Power</li> <li>Meaning of Potential and Kinetic Energy</li> </ol>   <h2>Meaning of Work</h2> Work is said to be done whenever a force or load moves through a distance. i.e. work = force × distance moved in the direction of the force (f × d). <img class="size-full wp-image-11900 aligncenter" src="https://classhall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/work-done-1.jpg" alt="Work done" width="386" height="220" /> Mathematically W(d) = f × d The unit of work is joules with symbol J.   <h2>Force</h2> Force is that which changes a body’s state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line. It can as well be expressed as: Force = mass × acceleration i.e. F = m × a Where: F = force, M = mass and A = acceleration The unit of force is Newton (N). If force = mass × acceleration Work can be given as: Work = Mass × acceleration × distance. Also, W = F × S Where, W = Work done is measured in <strong>Joules (J)</strong>

Force is the product of mass of the objects and its acceleration. The greater the mass of the object, the greater the force required to move it. Examples of force are pull, push, tension forces and frictional force between surfaces. <strong>Force is measured in Newton.</strong> <h2><strong>Mathematical Expression of Force</strong></h2> F ά mass × acceleration F = ma, where m = mass and a = acceleration due to gravity <h2><strong>Types of Forces </strong></h2> There are two types of force. These are; <ol> <li>Contact force</li> <li>Non-contact force/force field</li> </ol> <h3><strong>Contact Force </strong></h3>
