What is a dam How is it useful to us?
A dam is used to make an artificial lake in a river which can be used to generate hydroelectric power or as a reservoir.
Is technology applied science?
No.Technology is the product of several applied sciences called engineering.Technology is composed of tools, the knowledge to make those tools, the knowledge to efficiently use those tools, and the infrastructure needed to support the ongoing making and use of those tools and the training of the users of those tools.
Why is technology more than just a tool?
A technology is composed of three things:the knowledge needed to make one or more tools needed to do a taskthe skills and training for competent and efficient use of those toolsthe infrastructure needed to make, support, and maintain those toolsLose any one of those three and even if you still have the tools you have lost or will soon lose that technology.
How are hydroelectric power stations built?
Firstly, the topographer makes a detailed study of the topography on the local, in which the hydroelectric power plant will be built. Then on an appropriate place the terrain is lowered to form the waterfall which will move the turbines that will generate electricity. The river is blocked to form a huge dam and it has a channel to make the water fall from the top of the dam. Many stages to be followed until the turbines begin to generate electricity.
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.
Is solar power the greenest kind of power?
No, there is a lot of "stuff" that is not green needed to make the panels etc. Hydroelectric power is perhaps the greenest.
Can you make hydroelectric power anywhere?
No, only where there is moving water.
How do you make a working model of a hydroelectric power plant?
You can make a working model of a hydroelectric power plant by creating a diarama out of a box and diagramming the different parts within the box to scale.
What country in Europe produces the most hydroelectric power?
Norway is the European country that produces the most hydroelectric power. Its abundant rivers and water resources make it an ideal location for harnessing hydroelectric energy.
Hydroelectric energy not be used?
this question does not make much sence but yes hydroecectric power is used lots in many different countries. Infact the world get 19% of its energy from hydroelectric power
Can you use a dead battery to make a mini hydroelectric?
No, In a hydroelectric system force of water rotates a dynamo that generates power. The power must be used or stored in a battery. If the battery is dead you cannot store power.
What are some options for sustainable energy production?
There are many options for sustainable energy production, though often, more development and research is needed to make them viable on a large scale. Some options include solar power, wind power, hydroelectric power, and nuclear power.
When did Kenya decide to make its first hydroelectric power plant?
no one really knows except the people who live in the part of Kenya where they put the power plant.
What does a hydroelectric power plant use to turn the turbines which are connected to the generators that make electricity?
The turbines or Pelton wheels in a hydroelectric power plant are turned by water pressure.
What bar tools are needed to make a martini?
The cocktail shaker is the only utensil needed to make a martini.
Who makes DeWalt power tools?
Black and Decker now make DeWalt power tools.
What is needed to make a gun?
Metal, tools and skill.
