What energy conversion takes place in hydro power plants?
potential - kinetic- electrical
kinetic to potential to electric
potential to chemical to electric
all of these
In hydro power plants, the flowing water's potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and then it is converted into electric energy.
At a particular power station, the following energy change takes place: Potential energy -> Kinetic energy -> Mechanical energy -> Electrical energy What type of power station it is?
Question 4 In a hydro power plant (a) Potential energy possessed by stored water is converted into electricity. (b) Kinetic energy possessed by stored water is converted into potential energy. (c) Electricity is extracted from water. (d) Water is converted into steam to produce electricity.
