Answer:

The kinetic energy of water turns turbines; then the mechanical energy of the turbine rotates generator parts that produce electrical energy within the generator.

Step-by-step explanation:

The power of moving water is transformed into electrical energy in a hydroelectric power plant.

I took the test and it was right 100% :)

on rivers and they produce electricity when water is released and it flows through a fanlike turbine causing a generator to spin.
