It is a clean source of fuel, meaning it doesn't cause pollution. Hydro power is a renewable source of energy and is also cheap. ]]> 2018-01-22 19:41:44 UTC https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223526859 131363 https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223527594 It is tools and machines that is used  in real-world problems. They are  used for greater reach acceleration for people that makes manufacturing. New technology improves inefficiencies and makes products and services less expensive.]]> 2018-01-22 19:43:01 UTC https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223527594 109962 https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223530107 Hydropower (or hydroenergy) is a form of a renewable resource. Hydropower uses water stored in dams and water flowing in rivers to create electricity in hydroplants. ]]> 2018-01-22 19:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223530107 1152010 https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223530315 Hydro power is fueled by water, so it's a clean fuel source, meaning it won't pollute the air like power plants that burn fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas. It was used by farmers as far back as ancient Greece for mechanical tasks like grinding grain.]]> 2018-01-22 19:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223530315 109962 https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223531859 Hydropower uses a turbine to help generate electricity, using the energy of falling or flowing water to turn the blades. The rotating of the blades spins the generator turning it into electrical energy. ]]> 2018-01-22 19:49:13 UTC https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223531859 517008 https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223532158 Hydro power can Impact water quality and flow. Hydro power plants can cause low dissolved oxygen levels in the water. A problem that is harmful to riverbanks habitats and is addressed using various aeration techniques, which oxygenate the water.]]> 2018-01-22 19:49:50 UTC https://padlet.com/13539/wajh52imh8dz/wish/223532158
