Question

Which description gives the steps for creating hydroelectric power?

a. River water stored in a reservoir flows down a channel in a dam, turning a turbine as it passes. The turbine is connected to a generator that produces electricity, and then the water continues downstream.


b.River water stored in a reservoir flows through a turbine and into a channel in a dam. At the end of the channel, the water turns a generator, which produces electricity; then the water flows back upstream.


c.River water enters a dam through a generator. The movement of the water through the generator produces electricity. Then the water flows out of the dam through turbines into a reservoir.


d. River water enters a dam through channels. The channels are connected to a transformer, which turns a generator, producing electricity. The water is then transported through turbines to wastewater canals.

Answer 1

the answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

i took this test and i got 100% on it so trust me

Answer 2

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Hydro-power plant captures the energy of falling water to produce electricity.

Hydroelectric power is produced as follows:

Water from the reservoir are channelized into tunnel where they turn the turbine or rotates the turbine with high power.

Turbine is further connected to the generator. The rotating of turbines enables the production of current via generator.

The produced current or electric power is then sent to the transformer which further distributes the power into various electrical lines according to demand.

Hence the correct answer is option:'river water stored in a reservoir flows down a channel in a dam, turning a turbine as it passes. the turbine is connected to a generator that produces electricity, and then the water continues downstream'.
