What else can I help you with?
In a hydroelectric plant the mechanical energy in moving water is transformed into?
Into electrical energy.
Can a turbine in a hydroelectric power plant makes energy?
Well, no. A turbine does not MAKE energy. It changes one form of energy to another. A Pelton turbine in a hydroelectric plant changes the weight and force of falling water to rotary mechanical energy, which is used to turn a generator. That changes mechanical energy to electrical energy. But none of that MAKES energy.
How does a diesel power plant works?
A diesel powerplant uses the diesel power cycle for energy generation. A diesel power plant is one using a diesel engine to run a generator coupled to it. A generator produces power when it rotates.
What Power plant that uses uranium as a source of energy?
Uranium (or plutonium) is a source of energy (nuclear fuel) in nuclear power plants.
Why is building a desalination plant costly?
It is due to the amount of energy needed to run a desalination plant, as well as the fines that have to be paid due to the amount of air pollution a desalination plant gives out.
What are three energy conversions that might occur in a power plant?
I think is a fuel in a substance that provides to form of energy such as heat, light, electricity, or motion as the result of a chemical change.
What must a plant have for photosynthisis to occur?
Sunlight mostly because it is the energy the plant uses
What kind of energy is increase when earthquakes occur?
Thermal Energy is the success of this neutral plant
When does plant respiration occur?
During the day, or any time there is usable radiation energy available to drive the process of photosynthesis in the plant.
Why might a fish kill occur at the effluent discharge of a power plant?
This is due to polluted residual waters.
What is the energy efficiency of a typical nuclear power plant?
The energy efficiency of a typical nuclear power plant varies, depending on its design, but a typical value might be around 33%.
What might happen if a plant could not make its own food energy?
It would die!
Which name is given to the region where photosynthesis can occur?
The region where photosynthesis can occur is known as the chloroplasts in plant cells. This is where the pigment chlorophyll captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy to drive the process of photosynthesis.
What plant cell organelles does photosynthesis occur in and what are the raw materials energy used?
chloroplast and the reactants used are CO2 and H2O
What energy do producers need for photosynthesis to occur?
Producers need light energy to drive the process of photosynthesis. This light energy is absorbed by pigments such as chlorophyll in the chloroplasts of plant cells, and is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Without light energy, photosynthesis cannot occur efficiently.
Where does photosynthesis occur in a plant cell?
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells. These organelles contain chlorophyll, a pigment that captures light energy from the sun and converts it into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis.
How is energy conversions involved in the formation of coal?
Coal formation involves the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis in plants. Over millions of years, this stored chemical energy is further converted into coal through the accumulation and compression of plant matter in the Earth's crust, turning potential energy into stored energy in the form of coal.
