The one on the left in a hydroelectric power plant, water is stored high above a turbine. as it falls, the water spins the turbine blades to generate electricity. which form of energy does the stored water have? a. elastic potential energy b. gravitational potential energy c. radiant energy d. vibrational energy

B.  gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

If we talk about gravitational potential energy, it is the energy that a body or object possess  due to its certain position in a gravitational field.

This energy is commonly used by an object that is present near the earth surface where the value of gravitational acceleration is around 9.8 m/s2.

If we talk about  a hydroelectric power plant, where water is stored high above a turbine, it means it is at a certain height from the earth. Because water is stored high above a turbine but is starts to fall due to gravitational energy (GPE) towards the earth. When water falls this gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy that moves the turbine. When the turbine moves, generator that is connected to it converts kinetic energy into electrical energy.

Thus the energy that is triggering the whole process is GPE, that is is why the most appropriate option is  B: gravitational potential energy.

Hope it help!

measuring physical properties lab reportinstructions: in the physical properties lab, you will test the physical properties of different building materials in order to pick the appropriate materials for a new home in tiny world. record your observations and test measurements in the lab report below. youwill submit your completed report.name and title: lyric lawton, mr.herbert, 10/13/17, physical properties lab. objective(s): i need to parvus build his house out of the right material, so he will stay cool in the mountains.hypothesis: if we use wood to build the roof of the house, then the temperature inside the house will remain cooler.if we use clay brick to build the walls and floors of the house, then the temperature inside the house will remain cooler.if we use aluminium to bring electricity into the home, then it will allow electricity to flow into the home at a faster rate.if we use iron to construct the latches on the windows and doors, then the magnetism will keep the latches secure.
