10 Questions
The thermal process uses crude oil as the source of heat to produce steam and generate electricity.
True
Geothermal power plants utilize the natural heat from the inner core of the Earth to produce steam and generate electricity.
True
In the piezoelectric process, the vibrations of the record grooves compress the crystal materials, generating a varying electric current.
True
The photoelectric process involves harnessing the heat of the sun's rays to generate electricity.
False
The atomic reactor process uses nuclear fuel to produce steam that drives the turbines and generates electrical current.
True
The chemical process for generating electricity involves using two different types of metals as electrodes in an acid solution.
True
Dry cells are completely dry and do not require any moisture to function.
False
Primary batteries are rechargeable, meaning the electrical energy can be restored.
False
In the thermal process, the steam generated from burning fuel is used to rotate the impeller of a steam turbine, which then drives the power generators.
True
Hydropower generation involves the use of water to produce electricity.
True
Learn about the chemical process involved in cells by placing different types of metals in an acid solution known as electrolytes. Understand the differences between dry cells, which require moisture and use materials like ammonium chloride and manganese dioxide, and wet cells.
