Stored energy. Also this should have been listed under physics lol
Hydropower can be harnessed from flowing and falling water. Water stored behind dams and at a height has a lot of potential energy which is converted into mechanical and electrical energy.This water is released gradually and is made to fall under the force of gravity and drive hydraulic turbines and electrical generators.
Hydropower is also another indirect form of using solar energy. Hydropower has great potential as a supplier of electricity but environmental constraints limit such a development as the generation of electricity by hydroelectric power plants result in pollution and massive ecological disruptions such as land flooding, siltation, eutrophication and adverse effects on flora and fauna.
Smaller dams and reservoirs cause less damage but cannot exploit the full potential of this energy resource. Planning environmental impact assessment and construction of a hydroelectric power plant takes many years and the high initial capital investments are also limiting factors in the development of hydropower.
The development cost of hydroelectric power plants can be reduced by developing low cost turbines and generators, involving public participation in the development and operation of the project and using efficient environmental friendly technologies.
Answer:
Option C, Plant A
Explanation:
Control group within an experiment is the substance/organism or subject which shall enact as a base for comparison of impact of experiment created on the dependent variables.
Here, the impact of fertilizer is to be studied on plant. Thus, plant set up is dependent variable and amount of fertilizer is an independent variable. Out of all plants one plants is getting 0 amount of fertilizer hence this plant can be used for comparison with other plants which receives the fertilizers.
Answer:
Population density and transportation, Switzerland (technically), Africa
Explanation:
population density means of the population is close together and as such it can spread easier. Modern transportation I.E. buses, planes, railroads can transport large numbers of infected people to several different places within a nation and lead to more cases Switzerland is the highest per capita it has 1340 confirm cases per 1 million people however that's likely because they are able to test a large amount of the population at once whereas a larger Nations such as the u.s. or China is unable to test all their population at once and get accurate results. Africa is least affected due to not having a lot of population some together with the exception of some major cities and more industrialized countries such as Egypt and also Lacking the modern transportation systems available in more industrialized nations they don't have as many trains they don't really have too many planes able to transport infected people everywhere
