Question

Describe how hydro-energy can be converted into electrical energy.Write any two limitation of hydro-energy

Answer 1

potential energy / kinetic energy / mechanical energy / electrical energy

now the explanation:
Potential energy that is stored in water of high dam ...is converted to kinetic energy when it is passed through penstock to turbine ...then turbine rotates which is mechanical energy and at last the shaft of turbine rotates which is connected to turbine and generator produces electricity .

if my answer is satisfied 2 u , then please mark as brainliest.

Answer 2

Answer:

hope it helps................................................

__________________________________________________________

In hydropower plants, a large amount of water is stored at a height. This stored water is then allowed to fall on rotating turbines. The force of the running water (kinetic energy of running water) causes the turbines of the plant to spin. The rotating turbines then spin the generator, which ultimately produces electricity. In this manner, the kinetic energy of the running water is converted into mechanical energy and then finally into electrical energy.

Two limitations of Hydropower Energy are:

Causes a change in the course of rivers and lot of land is submerged under water.

Fish and wildlife are affected drastically.
