Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify Renewable Energy Sources

Renewable energy sources are those that can be replenished naturally over short periods of time. Common examples include solar, wind, hydroelectric, tidal, geothermal, and biomass.

Step 2: Analyze Each Option
  • Option A: Hydroelectric, petroleum, solar, and wind.
    • Hydroelectric, solar, and wind are renewable, but petroleum is not.
  • Option B: Fossil fuels and nuclear energy.
    • Both fossil fuels and nuclear energy are non-renewable.
  • Option C: Coal, solar, wind, and biomass.
    • Solar, wind, and biomass are renewable, but coal is not.
  • Option D: Wind, tidal, geothermal, and hydroelectric.
    • All listed sources (wind, tidal, geothermal, and hydroelectric) are renewable.
Step 3: Determine the Correct Answer

The list that contains only renewable energy sources is Option D.
