Is hydro energy made by flowing water?
Hydro-electric energy can be created in many ways, but all forms of energy require the spinning of a turbine to generate electricity.
Hwat ways do people use sun's energy directly or indirectly?
People use the sun's energy directly and indirectly in many ways. They use it to dry their clothes, grow food, heat their water, generate electricity, and to heat a home.
In what ways have humans made thermal energy work for them?
Thermal energy has served many uses to humans. Thermal energy has been used to cook food, heat homes, and generate electricity.
How can you store wind energy?
Wind turbines only produce electricity when the wind is blowing. So they are unsuitable to be the ONLY kind of electricity generation. They can store electricity in batteries while the wind is blowing, and this will be available in times of calm. Scientists and inventors are working on other ways to store the power of the wind. One way is to use it to heat salt. The salt retains its heat for a long time, and this heat could be used to generate electricity when the wind is low. Another idea is to use wind power to pump water up from a low lying tank into a tank higher up. Then, when there is no wind, the water can be released and the pull of gravity on the water can turn turbines which generate electricity.

Does PVC pipe generate static electricity?
A PVC pipe alone does not generate static electricity. Electrons need to be transfered for static electricity to be generated. Rubbing felt on the pipe or spraying it with sand are two common ways that people can use PVC pipe to generate static electricity.
