1. Answer:

   In hydropower plants, a large amount of water is stored at a height. This stored water is then allowed to fall on rotating turbines. The force of the running water (kinetic energy of running water) causes the turbines of the plant to spin. The rotating turbines then spin the generator, which ultimately produces electricity. In this manner, the kinetic energy of the running water is converted into mechanical energy and then finally into electrical energy.

   Two limitations of Hydropower Energy are:

   1. Causes a change in the course of rivers and lot of land is submerged under water.

   2. Fish and wildlife are affected drastically.

   Here is your answer.

   I hope it may help you.

2. Hydroenergy can be converted to electrical energy.

   Explanation:

   • Hydrenergy can be converted to electrical energy by using hydropower plants.
   • A Large amount of water is stored at a height, this water is then allowed to fall freely on the turbines.
   • The force of the running water causes turbines to spin .
   • Turbines then spin the generator, which ultimately produces electricity,
   • Thus kinetic energy of the running water is converted into mechanical energy and finally into electrical energy.
