Provide energy.
water wheel or water turbine
In an undershot water wheel, the wheel turns as a result of the weight of the water. The water flows into the wheel, stops and then when the wheel turns the water flows out underneath the wheel. It is used when you do not have a big head of water. In the overshot wheels the water pushes the wheel and then flows over the top of the wheel. The overshot wheel uses both the weight and the momentum of the water and so are more efficient and powerful.
In a water turbine.
for me
It can be used to actuate a mechanism, such as a water wheel or water turbine.
The water runs into cups and the wheel rotates under the weight of it
The wheel because they used the wheel to get the water pipe
used for getting water and sometimes electricity
wood
a turbine would be used instead of a water wheel because a turbine does not use as much energy and it uses the wind to generate it.
One use of paddle wheel is in Aqua farming. it is used to refresh the water by pushing air into water and lifting water into air. It is also called as Aerator in Prawn farming.
Hydropower energy is used when you use a water wheel. The flowing water turns the wheel, which then converts the kinetic energy of the water into mechanical energy to perform tasks like grinding grains or pumping water.
