← ScienceWhich outcome incorrectly applies mass-energy equivalence in hydroelectric generation?
A)Potential energy converts perfectly to electricity
B)Increased reservoir mass raises system inertia
C)Kinetic energy increases turbine temperature
D)Water mass deficit causes reduced power✓
💡 Explanation
Reduced reservoir mass doesn't noticeably lower power output because mass-energy equivalence effects manifest at nuclear scales through nuclear binding energies that drive reactions via fusion/fission, rather than chemically or gravitationally. Small percentage gains in power occur from increased water input rather than changes in source mass.
