Water is allowed to fall from some height into a turbine. The height the water falls increases its kinetic energy. That is why dams are so tall. The turbine rotates. the turbine is mounted on a shaft. The shaft is connected to the shaft of a generator. When the generator is spun by the turbine, it makes electricity.
Water actually does not fall but rather flows down stream at high velocity and great pressure.
it also saves much more money and if we only use it we will be stoping polution and we can reuse it.
What else can I help you with?
Do we use more freshwater in our homes to provide us electricity?
No. Water can be used in a hydroelectric dam to generate electricity, but this does not make us use more or less water in our homes.
Forms of enery that can make electricity?
some forms of energy that can make electricity are but not limited to Water, Wind and Solar power ...
When you use electricity from the water will it reduce the amount of water?
No, using electricity generated from water (hydropower) does not reduce the amount of water in the river or source, as the water continues to flow downstream after passing through the hydropower plant. Hydropower is a renewable energy source that harnesses the energy of flowing water to generate electricity without depleting the water resource.
Does chlorinated water conduct electricity?
Yes, chlorinated water can conduct electricity because the chlorine ions in the water can carry an electric charge. This can make chlorinated water a conductor of electricity, which can be a safety concern in certain situations.
What are some uses of hydro power?
hydropower or hydroelectricity is the power of water generated by water. we use this electricity everywhere it powers 24% of the worlds electricity.
what are some uses of hydro-power?
hydropower or hydroelectricity is the power of water generated by water. we use this electricity everywhere it powers 24% of the worlds electricity.
Do we use more freshwater in our homes to provide us electricity?
No. Water can be used in a hydroelectric dam to generate electricity, but this does not make us use more or less water in our homes.
Water and what make electricity?
Water at a height, pipework and a hydroelectric generator make electricity.
How id the hydropower plant able to make electricity?
They use flowing water to spin a generator.
What can be added to pure or distilled water to make it a conductor of electricity?
Ions, use salt.
Do you need water to make electricity?
No, but virtually every large scale power plant uses water in an industrial fashion. But the little generator I use when camping does not have or use any water.
Does salt water make electricity?
no
Why water conducts good electricity?
Water is a poor conductor of electricity. However, the presence of ions in water make the solution a good conductor of electricity.
How do you use water electricity?
Electricity is electricity . . . it does not matter whether it was created by falling water, burning coal or oil, or by a nuclear power plant.
What is the meaning of use of electricity?
"USE OF ELECTRICITY" means use of water and money, because when we are using more electricity like light, bulbs, tube lights and etc. we all are familiar with this that electricity is made up of water so it a wastage of water and money as well. Because we have to pay the bill as well!
Do energy star dishwashers use less electricity or water or both?
Energy Star dishwashers use less electricity, although they generally use less water as well.
What is electricity made by water called?
Water Electricity is electricity obtained from hydropower. Most hydroelectric power comes from the potential energy of dammed water driving a water turbine and generator. Less common variations make use of water's kinetic energy or undammed sources such as tidal power. Hydroelectricity is a renewable energy source.
