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 pollution.

The answer is B.

Explanation: They both use kinetic energy (energy of motion) to create electricity

Option (B)

Explanation:

The power plants commonly use water and wind as the energy source for the production of electricity. It is very efficient to use as it is renewable and it does not release any harmful gases into the atmosphere.

There is one similarity between the power plants that use water and wind energy, and it is that they both use kinetic energy that helps in converting it into electrical energy.

In the plants where water is being used, the flow of water forces the blade of the motor to rotate, which eventually produces electricity.

Similarly, in the plants where wind energy is used, the prevailing wind forces the blade to rotate, resulting in the production of electrical energy.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy
