How did the waterwheel impact the earth?
Allowed man to use water power in lieu of man or animal power to mill grain, produce electricity.
How do you generate electricity from Ipomoea?
Ipomoea, like other plants, has to be harvested and dried. It can then be burnt in an ordinary power station to boil water. The steam turns a generator to produce electricity.
What do you need to build a solar power plant?
Mirrors all round to focus the radiation.A central tank, filled with a medium, like water, or salt. This will let us produce steam.An electricity turbine, which will generate electricity when it is turned by the steam.A cable, to connect the power to the electricity grid.
Does hydroelectric power produce pollution?
No. It relies totally on the potential energy of a raised body of water. You could argue that the turbines and generators used polluting energy to produce them, or the building of the power house and dams. Once set up, there is no futher pollution caused in generating electricity.
Can fossil fuels be burned to produce thermal energy that can boil water and produce steam?
Yes, that is how they are used to generate electricity.
How water power is harnessed to produce power?

What is wind power?
Wind power is energy, initially from the sun, that influences our weather and climate. It has been harnessed for thousands of years for sailing boats, pumping water and grinding corn. It is now being harnessed by electricity turbines to produce clean, green, non-polluting electricity.
How is hydro power harnessed to make electricity?
A river is dammed, water from the lake behind the dam is sent through water turbines, the water turbines spin and turn electrical generators, the generators produce electricity which is sent to transformers, the transformers place the electricity on the power grid.
How is hydro-power harnessed to make electricity?
A river is dammed, water from the lake behind the dam is sent through water turbines, the water turbines spin and turn electrical generators, the generators produce electricity which is sent to Transformers, the transformers place the electricity on the power grid.
How can wind flowing water and tides be used to produce electricity?
Wind can be harnessed using wind turbines that convert the kinetic energy into electricity. Flowing water can be utilized in hydroelectric power plants by capturing the energy of the moving water to generate electricity. Tides can be used in tidal power stations, where the changing tides drive turbines to produce electricity.
How is electricity harnessed?
It is NOT harnessed by getting zapped by lightning. It can be harnessed in a variety of ways. (i.e. wind, water, battery power.) Please and thank you, Adria xx
How can water and wind be harnessed to generate electricity?
They both power turbines which rotate to generate electricity. A turbine works the same way as an electric motor.
What is a force used to turn turbines?
Water, wind, or steam are commonly used to turn turbines and generate electricity. These forces are harnessed to rotate the blades of the turbine, which then spin a generator to produce power.
How can wind and water can be used as a source of electricity?
Wind and water force can be used to turn turbines which in turn produce electricity. I'm not entirely sure how turbines work but I believe that the turning motion produces kinetic energy which can be harnessed as electricity.
How does renewable source provide energy?
Wind, water, solar and other renewable sources of power can all be harnessed to generate electricity.
How do hydro power plant produce electricity?
By using water pressure to power generators.
How is geothermal energy harnessed to produce energy?
Geothermal energy is harnessed by tapping into hot rock and water reservoirs beneath the Earth's surface. This heat is then used to produce steam, which drives turbines connected to generators to produce electricity. The process is sustainable and emits very low greenhouse gas emissions.
