Question : In hydel power station, the motion produced in turbines is due to:
Option 1: flow of water
Option 2: burning of coal
Option 3: burning of diesel
Option 4: production of steam
Correct Answer: flow of water
Solution : The correct option is flow of water.
The flow of water generates motion in turbines in a hydel (hydroelectric) power station. Pipes carry water from a river or reservoir to the turbines. When high-pressure water meets the turbine blades, they revolve. This mechanical action is subsequently converted into electrical energy by driving a generator. Because the flow of water drives the whole process, hydropower plants are an efficient and renewable method of energy generation.
