How much water would it take for a dam to create enough energy to operate a single household for 24 hours?

It's pretty obvious that the answer must depend on both the depth of the water
and the relative profligacy of the household's energy use. It could plausibly range
over several orders of magnitude.

Can energy create particles?
If enough is concentrated matter can be created from energy.
Could energy be extracted from household water pressure - In other words could the flow of water into the household create enough energy worth capturing?
this is a guess: if your water preassure is high enough constantly moving water could probably produce enough energy for lighting a few energy saving lights, powering a small tv or radio etc. but not enough to power heating appliances like kettles, stoves etc. the problem is that you don't have constantly moving water in your household plumbing since you don't have a tap running permanently. one could probably capture a worthwhile amount of energy from the flow from a reservoir that serves something like a town, but with just a household you're wasting your time If you pay for your water by volume with a watermeter, keeping a tap running for a long time might be a very expensive way of getting electricity!
Is there enough energy produced by solar power to supply peoples household needs?
Yes there is plenty of solar energy for every house on the planet.
What are disadavantages solar energy?
It can only create energy at the daytime as even though the sun shines onto the moon so we can see it, the moon is not bright enough to create solar energy
How much energy is in a lightning strike?
A single bold of lightning contains around 5 billion joules of energy. This is enough energy to power an average sized household for an entire month.
Does the car battery effect the starter?
Yes, if the battery is weak it will not provide enough electrical energy to properly operate the starter.
Does the collision of molecules create heat?
The number of collisions with enough energy to react increases.
Creatine phosphate and ATP together create enough energy for a muscle to contract for?
15 seconds
What is the common use of oxygen?
To breath. We use it to create our energy, without a sufficient source of oxygen we would die in a very short of time because our bodies could not create enough energy and sugar to function.
If you fart consistently for 6-9 months enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atom bomb?
you will die
Geothermal energy is an alternative energy source However it is not resourceful enough to replace more than a minor amount of the Earth's energy needs Why is this?
Drilling through the Earth to reach areas hot enough to create steam is possible, but very expensive and difficult.
How do you create a laser beam?
A: By applying to a laser diode pulse of current enough energy to emit photons at a certain frequency.
