What else can I help you with?
Is hydroelectric energy kinetic energy?
Potential energy, because the energy in this process is produced through the use of the gravitational force of falling or flowing water.
What type of energy in flowing water?
Mechanical energy, if it is moving then it is kinetic mechanical energy. Or if it is at the top of a hill about to fall then it is potential mechanical energy.
When will hydroelectric energy run out?
When there is no longer enough water in the river behind the dam to turn the turbines.When the reservoir behind the dam silts up too much for the turbines to obtain water anymore. This eventually happens to all dams after several centuries.When drought comes to the country.When countries further up the river take the water for their own hydroelectric energy use, crop irrigation, or keep the water for their own people to drink.etc.
How could you trace the flow of energy in a hydroelectric plant?
In a hydroelectric plant, potential energy from the water stored in a reservoir is converted into kinetic energy as it flows through the turbines. The turbines are connected to generators which convert the kinetic energy into electrical energy. The electrical energy is then transmitted through power lines to homes and businesses for use.
What is the difference between hydroelectric and hydrothermal energy?
the difference between the hydroelectric energy and the hydrothermal is hydrothermal is using geothermal heat (hot rocks) to create electricity by pumping it while the hydroelectric energy it uses the high dams and waterfall to create electricity.
How do people use hydroelectric energy?
people use hydroelectric energy to power almost anything from cars to ur hair dryier . But it is mostly used to power houses. basically people use it for electricity
How do people use hydroelectricity?
People can use hydroelectric energy for almost anything. People use it for their cars, and some for things such as hairdryers, People tend to use it for electricity.
Where is the energy of hydroelectric energy practical?
This is a really clever questionWe can use hydroelectric energy in rivers oceans etc..But you can't use them at small lakes because there will be no energy or power in it because it is even small.
How are tidal geberators different from hydroelectric plants?
Hydroelectric plants use energy from moving water
Where is the production of hydroelectric energy?
This is a really clever questionWe can use hydroelectric energy in rivers oceans etc..But you can't use them at small lakes because there will be no energy or power in it because it is even small.
How do you use hydroelectric energy in a sentence?
The power to run early grain mills came from hydroelectric energy provided through water wheels.
Where is production of hydroelectric energy practical?
This is a really clever questionWe can use hydroelectric energy in rivers oceans etc..But you can't use them at small lakes because there will be no energy or power in it because it is even small.
What two forms of energy does Iceland use?
Hydroelectric and geothermal
How is hydroelectric energy stored for later use?
a capacitor bank
The use of hydroelectric energy is to our advantage because it does not lead to what?
pollution
Can you put the word hydroelectric in a sentence?
In hydroelectric power station we use the potential energy of water to generate electricity.
Why do the Europeans use hydroelectric energy?
Europeans use hydroelectric energy because they know how important it is to use renewable energy and stop using fossil fuels. Hydro power is available wherever there are mountains and rivers that can be harnessed. Hydroelectric energy is also free and emits no harmful carbon dioxide emissions that cause global warming and climate change.
