What is the process of operation of a hydroelectric power plant?
Worldwide, hydropower plants produce about 24 percent of the world's electricity and supply more than 1 billion people with power. The world's hydropower plants output a combined total of 675,000 megawatts, the energy equivalent of 3.6 billion barrels of oil, according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. There are more than 2,000 hydropower plants operating in the United States, making hydropower the country's largest renewable energy source.In this article, we'll take a look at how falling water creates energy and learn about the hydrologic cycle that creates the water flow essential for hydropower. You will also get a glimpse at one unique application of hydropower that may affect your daily life.
Can any source of energy be pollution free?
In hydro power or solar power the energy source is pollution free but the process of manufacturing and building the plant is not of course.
In a hydroelectric plant the mechanical energy in moving water is transformed into?
Into electrical energy.
What is an ammonia plant?
a ammonia plant makes ammonia by using a special process called the Haber Bosch process they are infamous by their smell, they make fertilizers and sometimes dyes and nylon
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.
How does the transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant station?
The transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant includes:Potential energy -> kinetic energy-> electrical energy
When a hydropower plant uses the falling water to turn a turbine they are creating what type of energy?
Hydroelectricity--Hydroelectric energy
What synthesis energy in plant?
Photosynthesis is the conversion of water and sunlight into ATP (Energy) for the plant cells.

What energy conversion takes place when a plant makes food?
Light energy to chemical energy.
What is a hydropower power plant?
dam
What is the giant tube in a hydropower plant?
penstock
In a plant cell what part process energy?
In a plant cells what part processes energy
What energy is generated from running water?
Energy is actually not created. Hydel power plant converts the stored water's potential into Kinetic energy energy in the runneer & at last to electrical energy through Generator
What is a giant tube in a hydropower plant?
The giant tube in a hydropower plant is called Penstock. A Penstock is refers to the enclosed pipe that delivers water to the hydro turbines.
Which process ocurs in the chloroplast of plant cells?
Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells. They are the organelles primarily responsible for photosynthesis, the conversion of light energy to chemical energy as fuel for the plant.
What is the primary energy conversion that take place in plant during photosynthesis?
During photosynthesis the energy of light is transformed in chemical energy.
