How is energy converted in a hydroelectric plant? The kinetic energy of water turns turbines; the mechanical energy of the turbines turns the generator, which produces electrical energy.

The potential energy of water is converted to electrical energy when water flows past a generator.

The potential energy of water turns the generator's turbines, which results in the production of electrical energy.

The kinetic energy of water is converted to electrical energy when water flows down the dam's channel and into the transformer

Astudent sees several ants walking up a wall following the exact same trail that an ant took earlier. she wants to apply the scientific method to determine how the ants detected the trail. which of these steps would come first in her application of the scientific method? perform an experiment by cleaning the scent away from part of the trail. draw a conclusion that the ants follow a scent trail. make a prediction about what the ants will do after she cleans away part of the trail. hypothesize that the ants are following a scent trail that the first ant left.
