A paddle wheel or turbine is turned by the moving water (the kinetic energy). This can be connected by a system of gears, wheels or even pulleys to turn a machine. This was how grain was ground into flour. After electricity was understood, the water spins turbines which generate electricity, and this electricity is used to run machines.
