Match the following. Column A Column B (a) Vehicle which uses two or more energy sources of power (i) Water pollution (b) Oil spill (ii) Mantle (c) The power to do work (iii) Seismograph (d) The layer under the crust (iv) Hybrid vehicle (e) The Instrument used to measure earthquake (v) Core (f) The innermost layer of Earth (vi) Energy

a - i v A hybrid vehicle combines any two power (energy) sources. Possible combinations include diesel/electric, gasoline/fly wheel, and fuel cell (FC)/battery. Typically, one energy source is storage, and the other is conversion of a fuel to energy. b - i The oil spill causes water pollution due to the release of oil into the water bodies. Oil spills can suffocate fish, get caught in the feathers of birds and mammals and block light from photosynthetic plants in the water. c - v i Energy is the power to do work. The Sun is Earth's primary source of energy. d - i i The mantle is the thick layer of hot, solid rock between the Earth's crust and the molten iron core. e - i i i Seismograph is the instrument used to measure earthquake. The size of an earthquake depends on the size of the fault. f - v A core is the innermost layer of the earth. The Earth's core temperature is about 6100 ° C .
