the save the water dam reservoyer.then the water one huge pipe line throw going under below power house.the gravitation forece is highly.thats the water very high force and the water roteting turbain.the turbain genrate the electricity.

What does a dam produce?
Hydroelectric power
Can you produce power electricity- www.powerfromgravity.com from gravitational not a dam force?
Can we produce power (electricity - www.powerfromgravity.com) from gravitaitonal (not from dam) force by using buoyancy from renewable source of energy?
Do the glen canyon dam produce hydrolelctric power?
yes
How many kilowatts a hour does a dam produce?
Most power plants produce several Megawatts of power. A Megawatt is one million watts.
What type of energy use at home?
Hydroelectric power (from a dam), nuclear energy, solar power and wind power generate electricity. Natural gas is used for heating. Solar (the sun) can produce heat and electricity.
What uses Hydroelectric power?
Hydroelectric power plants. They have dams and generators. Water flows through a dam, which spins generators that produce hydroelectric electricity. (Fun Fact: The Hoover Dam is the biggest hydroelectric power plant.)
Why dams are constructed near rivers?
Because - the 'usual' function of a dam is to turn the movement of water into electrical energy. If there's no water flowing through the dam - the dam cannot produce power.
A dam constructed to produce tidal power does so by?
harnessing water flow to drive turbines and electric generators
How does hydro power produce in dams?
Hydroelectricity is produced by water flower through water turbines in the dam creating electricty. Thus hydro-power.
Does a height of a dam make a difference on the amount of energy the dam produce?
Yes. The height of the water level above the turbine affects the water pressure, and therefore the amount of power that can be generated.
The three gorges dam will create power from?
All dams (or most of them) produce electricity from water - specifically hydropower. Water goes through the dam and spins a few dozen turbines, producing electricity. Very similar to wind power.
What type of power does Norway produce?
Hydro
