geothermal energy is defined as the energy is present inside/below the earth (surface). This energy is present due to two main reasons: the leftover energy from planet formation processes and due to radioactive decay. This is potential entrapped as pressurized steam/gases and can be harnessed in number...

geothermal energy is defined as the energy is present inside/below the earth (surface). This energy is present due to two main reasons: the leftover energy from planet formation processes and due to radioactive decay. This is potential entrapped as pressurized steam/gases and can be harnessed in number of ways. oldest and easiest is through hotspots as they are at surface level hence no need of digging; other involve drilling, can be found at shallow depths near volcanic regions. read less

Science theory

geothermal energy consists of two words 'geo' means the surface or we can say earth and 'therm' means heat so in simple words we can say that the energy coming from the earths surface is called as geothermal energy.

Find the number of terms of the A.P: 7, 13, 19, ...., 205?
The first term, t1=a = 7. The common difference, b=13 - 7=6. Last term or the nth term, tn=a + (n-1)b = 205. So, we have, 7 + (n - 1)6 = 205 --> (n - 1) = (205 - 7)/6 = 33 --> n = 34. Answer: Number of terms is 34.
