What are some examples of water energy?

Answer 1

Hydroelectric energy comes from the movement of water (the prefix "hydro-" means water.) Any transfer of energy from water movement to anything electrical or mechanical is a form of hydroelectric energy. The best examples are dams. A dam blocks moving water and forces it through a confined space, where it can do mechanical work or be converted to electrical work. Another example could be a mill wheel being used to grind corn. Yet another could be an old-fashioned paddle-wheel boat (although that's chemical energy from the burning of coal being turned into mechanical energy turning the wheel that results in the boat's forward motion.) Technically those last two examples are hydromechanical rather than hydroelectric, but you get the picture.

Answer 2

Some examples are waves (the movement of energy through the water), and rip currents.

Answer 3

Solar energy, tidal energy & wind energy are the forms of natural energy.

Answer 4

Some examples of water energy sources include hydroelectric power, tidal energy, and wave energy. These sources harness the power of moving water to generate electricity in a sustainable manner.

Answer 5

water pumps
