What are examples of hydroelectric energy?
A water turbine dam is an example of hydroelectric energy. Hydroelectricity is an important part of the energy mix in the world.
What geographical features are needed when building a hydroelectric dam?
what geogaphical features are needed when building a hydroelectric dam
Can a turbine in a hydroelectric power plant makes energy?
Well, no. A turbine does not MAKE energy. It changes one form of energy to another. A Pelton turbine in a hydroelectric plant changes the weight and force of falling water to rotary mechanical energy, which is used to turn a generator. That changes mechanical energy to electrical energy. But none of that MAKES energy.
A hydroelectric dam is one of these?
generator
What is the name of the worlds largest dam?
As of 2008, the largest hydroelectric dam is the Three Gorges Dam in China.
What is an example of hydroelectric energy?
The Hoover Dam.

hydroelectric
Where is hydroelectric energy found?
Where is hydroelectric energy generated?Hydroelectric energy, being electricity generated from a hydro (water) source, usually a hydro-electric dam, can be found anywhere on the electrical grid.
What kind of energy does the hover dam convert and what kind of energy does it output?
A hydroelectric dam converts part of the kinetic energy of falling water to electrical energy.
How does energy change forms as it goes from behind a dam to downstream of a dam?
potential energy that converts to kinetic energy
What nation shares the world's largest hydroelectric dam with Brazil?
The answer is Paraguay. The dam you are talking about is the Itaipú Dam, which is the world's largest hydroelectric power plant. However, the Itaipú Dam provides most of its energy supply to Brazil.
Is hydroelectric energy easy to collect or mine?
Hydroelectric energy is created by utilizing falling water. For large quantities it requires a dam and big generators.
