The stages of the water cycle are evaporation (water turning into vapor), condensation (vapor turning into clouds), precipitation (rain, sleet, or snow falling from clouds), and collection (water returning to oceans, rivers, and lakes). The energy driving the water cycle primarily comes from the sun, which heats the Earth's surface, causing water to evaporate.
Source of energy is the sun.
Earth's interior.
from the wind
Yes, the energy for evaporation primarily comes from the sun. Solar energy heats up the Earth's surface, causing water to evaporate and enter the atmosphere as water vapor.

The water cycle requires heat energy. It comes from sun.
Yes, the energy for evaporation primarily comes from the sun. Sunlight heats the surface of water, causing the water molecules to gain enough energy to break free from the liquid phase and become water vapor in the atmosphere.
No, water does not need sunlight to evaporate. The primary factor that drives evaporation is heat energy, which can come from various sources, not just sunlight. Evaporation occurs when water molecules gain enough energy to escape from the liquid and enter the air as a gas.
Technically, hydroelectric energy ultimately comes from the sun. This is because the sun's energy heats up water, moving water through the water cycle. Hydroelectric energy is generated by harnessing the power created by the movement of this water.
The energy comes from the Sun, which heats the surface of the water, causing the water molecules to gain enough kinetic energy to break free from the liquid state and evaporate into the atmosphere.

Geothermal energy comes from the Earth's mantle, which is located between the crust and the core. Heat from the Earth's interior is transferred to the surface through volcanic activity and geothermal reservoirs, which can be tapped for energy production.
Primarily, from the sun.
Radiant energy transmitted to Earth primarily comes from the Sun. The Sun emits electromagnetic radiation across a broad spectrum, including visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared radiation. This radiant energy is responsible for heating the Earth and driving various natural processes.
