When water is released from a dam, what happens?

Chemistry
1 answer:
malfutka [58]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy

Explanation:

Once a river is dammed it changes its physical and chemical structure. Damming also changes the biological communities associated with the river and its floodplain. When water is kept behind dams, seasonal flow patterns are usually lost.

A hydroelectric dam converts the potential energy stored in a water reservoir behind a dam to mechanical energy—mechanical energy is also known as kinetic energy. As the water flows down through the dam its kinetic energy is used to turn a turbine.

Sergio039 [100]
A plant is a living organism that uses chlorophyll in the chloroplasts to perform photosynthesis. The chemical equation of photosynthesis is
Sunlight(Photons)+ CO2+2H2O ----->C6H12O6+H2O+O2.(Not balanced) The reactants are carbon dioxide and water. The products are water and glucose with oxygen as a waste product.Photosynthesis can make a plant form a closed cycle as plants need to respire with oxygen which is a waste product of one of their reactions.
