- dam builds up a "head" of water pressure
- pressure forces water through turbine, causing it to turn
- rotating turbine turns alternator
- rotating alternator generates electric current
BTW, all energy is natural.

Example of energy transformation from chemical potential energy to thermal energy?
A log burning in a fire place.
The amount of solar energy received at a particular place on earth depends on?
the position of the sun. If it is perpendicularly overhead then that place receives the most solar energy.
Where can you get a Diagram for a 1990 Chevy Silverado Rear Axle?
the best place to find a diagram for this would be to go to a shop that uses the program all data. usually they will print you out a copy there. if not, alldata has a website now at alldata.com here, you can pay to have them give you a diagram.hope it works out for you.
Which energy transformation takes place in a match head when light the match?
The mechanical energy used to strike a match is transformed first to thermal energy. The thermal energy causes the particles in the match to release stored chemical energy, which is transformed to thermal energy and the electromagnetic energy you see as light.

What are the three energy transformations that take place when you use a flashlight?
The energy transformations that I would mention are as follows:Chemical Potential Energy --> Electrical Energy (In Battery)Electrical Energy --> Light Energy (In Bulb)Electrical Energy --> Heat Energy (In Bulb)Transformations 2 and 3 happen at the same time, because 3 is a side-effect of the intended transformation 2. I can't think of any other transformations, unless you wanted to consider the process of making the battery, or take the example of an unconventional flashlight.
