Question

Write the energy conversion that takes place in a hydropower plant

Answer 1

The energy conversion that takes place in a hydropower plant is:
Potential Energy ---------> Kinetic Energy ---------> Electrical Energy..

Answer 2

Energy conversion taking place in a hydropower plant:

The water is in resting phase and when the hydropower plant does not function, it has potential energy. When the hydropower plant starts functioning, the mechanical energy starts the plant converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

When the output of hydropower plant is achieved, the kinetic energy has converted itself into the electrical energy. Therefore, energy converts from potential energy to kinetic energy and finally to electrical energy.
