Which set of properties correctly describes hydroelectric energy?

ANaturally available, friendly, turns turbines
BNaturally available, unreliable, turns turbines
CUnreliable, friendly, turns the turbines
DNaturally available, unreliable, friendly
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Naturally available, friendly, turns turbines
1. Hydroelectric energy is a renewable source, drawn from flowing water. 2. It is naturally available, since the water cycle continually replenishes it. 3. It is environmentally friendly, because generating it releases no combustion gases. 4. It works by turning turbines that drive generators. 5. It is reliable rather than unreliable, so any option including unreliability is wrong. _Source: NECTA CSEE 2021 Physics 031, Question 1: Multiple Choice, item (vi)_
