Earlier this month the Too Much, Too Soon campaign made headlines with a letter calling for a change to the start age for formal learning in schools.
Flowing water creates energy that can be captured and turned into electricity. This is called hydroelectric power or hydropower. The most common type of hydroelectric power plant uses a dam on a river to store water in a reservoir. Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine, spinning it, which in turn activates a generator to produce electricity. But hydroelectric power doesn't necessarily require a large dam. Some hydroelectric power plants just use a small canal to channel the river water through a turbine.
HYDRAULIC MACHINES. Used to convert between hydraulic and mechanical energies. Pumps: Convert mechanical energy (often developed from electrical source) into. hydraulic energy (position, pressure and kinetic energy). Water turbines: Convert hydraulic energy to mechanical energy and mechanical. energy is used to drive generators that develop electricity. Water turbines are generally designed and manufactured to each power stations. own conditions of water head, discharge, water and power demands.
