Question

Explain energy transformation in a hydroelectric power plant.

Answer 1

1. Huge amount of water is stored in dams built at heights.
2. The water stored in the damns possesses a large amount of potential energy because of the mass of water and the height of the dam.
3. When water from the height is released, the potential energy of water will get converted into potential energy.
4. The kinetic energy of moving water is used to move the blades of the turbine, which helps to produce electricity.
