What changes mechanical energy into electric energy?
An electrical motor is one device that will fall into that category.
Is water a form of electromagnetic energy?
Water is matter. Electromagnetic energy is energy in the form of electric fields and magnetic fields.
What type of energy is formed when a washing machine is used?
The motor is electric, the hot water is typically heated by gas or electric.
What involve the conversion of gravitational potential energy into electric energy - wind electric generators or hydroelectric power plants?
Hydroelectric power plants convert GPE into electric energy. When the water flows from the higher point to the lower point, hydroelectric turbines convert the energy of the flowing water into energy.
What energy changes takes place at the hydro electric power station?
Gravitational potential energy in the water is converted into mechanical energy by turning turbine "blades", the mechanical energy (kinetic energy) is converted to electrical energy by the electric generator.
Electric energy generated from moving water is called?
Electric energy generated from a water source is typically known as hydroelectric energy.
What changes mechanical energy into electric energy?
An electrical motor is one device that will fall into that category.
What are examples of hydro electric energy?
Dams are an example of hydro electric energy because they produce energy while water going through it
Is water a form of electromagnetic energy?
Water is matter. Electromagnetic energy is energy in the form of electric fields and magnetic fields.
How does tidal energy convert to potential energy?
Potential energy includes that of mass in a gravitational field. The water in a lake high in a mountain has potential energy which can be converted by a hydro electric generator when allowed to fall by gravity. Sea water retained at high tide can be used in the same way when the tide has receded
What type of energy is formed when a washing machine is used?
The motor is electric, the hot water is typically heated by gas or electric.
What happens when electrical energy is added to water?
When electrical energy is added to water it creates electric shock.
What involve the conversion of gravitational potential energy into electric energy - wind electric generators or hydroelectric power plants?
Hydroelectric power plants convert GPE into electric energy. When the water flows from the higher point to the lower point, hydroelectric turbines convert the energy of the flowing water into energy.
How is hydroelectricity released?
Hydro electric energy is released, by allowing the stored water to fall through pipework. The weight of the flowing water is used to rotate turbines attached to generators. Thus producing electricity.
What are 4 energy chains starting from the sun?
sun to wind turbines to electric cables to electric kettle to the hot water in your cup of tea the sun:thermal energy wind turbines:kinetic energy electric cables:electrical energy electrical kettle:thermal energy
What energy transformation accurs to a water fall?
Gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy of the fall. Some of that is then converted to heat which helps water to evaporate and to slightly increase the water temperature at the foot of the fall, some is converted to the noise of the waterfall, some is used to erode rocks at the foot of the fall.
How does hydropower transformed?
The potential energy of the falling down water transfers to kinetic energy. The kinetic energy turns turbines that are connected to electric generators where the kinetic energy transfers into electric energy.
