Question

Which best describes a similarity between power plants that use water as an energy source and those that use wind as an energy source?

Both use heat from within Earth to produce electricity.
Both use kinetic energy to produce electricity.
Both use resources that are not abundant.
Both use resources that produce a lot of air polluti

Answer 1

Both use kinetic energy to produce electricity.

Explanation: Hydroelectric plants convert the kinetic energy of moving water into mechanical energy (turning turbines), and wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of moving air into mechanical energy; both then use generators to produce electricity.
