Question

explain the process of hydroelectricity

Answer 1

hydro means water or electricity means electric energy

so by joining the term,
the energy which is generated by using water is called hydroelectricity.

if it helpful plzz mark as brainlist and follow me

Answer 2

Most conventional hydroelectric plants include four major components (see graphic below):

Dam. Raises the water level of the river to create falling water. Also controls the flow of water. The reservoir that is formed is, in effect, stored energy. Turbine. The force of falling water pushing against the turbine's blades causes the turbine to spin. A water turbine is much like a windmill, except the energy is provided by falling water instead of wind. The turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Generator. Connected to the turbine by shafts and possibly gears so when the turbine spins it causes the generator to spin also. Converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electric energy. Generators in hydropower plants work just like the generators in other types of power plants. Transmission lines. Conduct electricity from the hydropower plant to homes and business.
