https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi Hydroelectric power is produced as water passes through a dam, and into a river below. The more water that passes through a dam, the more energy is produced. Once a dam is built, an artificial man-made lake is created behind the dam. en-us 2018-04-03 12:47:08 UTC 2018-04-04 11:59:23 UTC hello@padlet.com 01anepal https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248086973 Electricity is produced by a device called a turbine. Turbines contain metal coils surrounded by magnets. When the magnets spin over the metal coils, electricity is produced. Turbines are located inside dams. The falling water spins the magnets.]]> 2018-04-03 12:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248086973 01anepal https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248087643 Hydroelectric dams can cost from around $237,000 to $2.25 million depending on how much power the dam will produce. Uses water to push a turbine.  ]]> 2018-04-03 12:50:48 UTC https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248087643 01anepal https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248088079 Boydton, VA.]]> 2018-04-03 12:51:41 UTC https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248088079 01anepal https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248090392 These plants produce electricity.]]> 2018-04-03 12:57:00 UTC https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248090392 01anepal https://padlet.com/01anepal/4ed6zz3b8loi/wish/248090798 Clean fuel source because its powered by water.
