• B. rotating turbines
• C. producing electricity
• D. cooking food

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C), (D)

The correct options are
A drying food grains
C producing electricity
D cooking food

Solar energy is the energy obtained from the Sun. It is a primary source of energy which can be directly used to dry food grains, produce electricity through a solar cell and even for cooking food in a solar cooker.
Rotating a turbine needs kinetic energy of flowing water which is not directly possible by solar energy.
