How is energy harnessed from flowing water?

You can build a dam with turbines and use the water moving through the turbines to generate electricity.You can install wave machines in the ocean to turn the movement of the waves into electricity.You can build barrages in tidal bays to take advantage of the movement of the tides to generate electricity.You can install turbines on the bed of fast-moving rivers and streams to generate electricity.You can build a watermill beside a stream or river and use the power of the moving water to turn millstones to grind grain into flour.


Does a fast moving stream use energy?

No, it does not


Power plants why are they bad?

power plants are used to generate power...... why they are saying bad means.....in order to generate power u need turbines to rotate and then using generator mechanical energy is converted in to electrical energy..... in order to rotate turbines they are goin for many methods.....some will rotate turbines with high stream..... so u need large amount of water to produce a stream so here wastage of water.... there are some power plants which give pollution.. and nuclear power plant is very dangerous,,, even if small accident or mistake has done means which results in such a vaste danger and damage for living things............... and even other than nuclear powerplants also leads to damage even if a small mistake or error occured means...... if we maintained properly means we can avoid..


Is water a form of energy?

Water energy formed when a lake called reservoir is connected to a dam.It flow down.The water is so powerful that can moves the blades of a turbine.The turbine is connected to a generator and energy appear


Is light composed of a stream of energy clusters called photons?

Yes it is.

How is tidal energy transformed into useful energy?

There is amazing power in the ocean tides moving in and out every 12 and a half hours. The energy in the moving water turns turbines to generate electricity.There are two types:The barrage dam type, which works like a hydro-electric river dam, excepts it holds the water back at high tide and then generates power by releasing the water.The tidal stream system, which is simpler, cheaper and less harmful to the environment, consisting simply of turbines in the stream of moving water.


How does a tidal stream generator work?

Tidal Turbines work when the tide goes in and out. The force from the movement of the water spins the turbines.

That's electric "current".


What is the relationship between stream erosion and kinetic energy?

It is direct, and the amount of stream erosion increases, kinetic energy increases also.

What can I do for electrical energy instead of doing air pollution?

You can use solar energy or produce electric through wind power. If you live near a river or stream you could generate electricity from the water movement. These are all clean ways of generating electricity
