Which of the following is a nonrenewable source of energy? (1) Biogas (2) Solar (3) Wind (4) Coal

1 Answer

Answer :

(4) Coal Explanation: A non-renewable resource is a natural resource which cannot be reproduced, grown, generated, or used on a scale which can sustain its consumption rate. So, coal is nonrenewable source of energy. Once it is depleted, there is no more available for future needs. Fossil fuels (such as coal, petroleum, and natural gas), nuclear power (uranium) and certain aquifers are examples of non-renewable resources.
