Answer :-
Nuclear Power Plant :-
▪️Source :-
Atoms of radioactive elements like Uranium and Plutonium.
▪️How is it used :-
The energy is used to generate the steam of high temperature and high pressure.
▪️Form of energy :-
Kinetic Energy in the steam rotates the turbine.
▪️How is electricity produced :-
The turbine in turn drives the generator to produce electricity.
Hydroelectric Power Plant :-
▪️Source :-
The water stored in the reservoir.
▪️How is it used :-
The water is made to fall at a great speed and hence there is production of kinetic energy.
▪️Form of energy :-
The kinetic energy of flowing water in turn drives the turbine.
▪️How is electricity produced :-
The turbine drives the generator and electrical energy is produced.
Hope it helps.
