Most of the sources of energy we are represent stored solar energy. Which of the following is not ultimately derived from the sun's energy

Options

A. Geothermal energy
B. wind energy
C. Nuclear energy
D. biomass

Explanation

Nuclear energy is released during nuclear fission and fusion. In nuclear fission, a uranium atom is bombarded with low-energy neutrons. Hence, uranium atom splits into two relatively lighter nuclei. This reaction produces a huge amount of energy In nuclear fusion lighter nuclei are fused together to form relatively heavier nuclei. The energy required to fuse the lighter nuclei is provided by fission reactions. This reaction produces a tremendous amount of energy. These reactions can be carried out in the absence or presence of sunlight. There is no effect of sunlight on these reactions. Hence, nuclear energy is not ultimately derived from sun.s energy.
Geothermal energy. wind energy , and biomass are all ultimately derived from solar energy.
