has been used to generate electricity from falling water. The capacity to produce this energy is dependent on both the available flow and the height from which it falls. Hydroelectric dams create height for the water to fall and provide storage. In general‚ the higher the dam‚ the more potential energy is available. Building up behind a high dam‚ water accumulates potential energy. The potential energy is then converted to kinetic energy where it can perform work to power a generator. Hydroelectric

The electron is a fundamental subatomic particle that carries a negative electric charge. It is a spin-½ lepton that participates in electromagnetic interactions‚ and its mass is less than one thousandth of that of the smallest atom. Its electric charge is defined by convention to be negative‚ with a value of −1 in atomic units. Together with atomic nuclei‚ electrons make up atoms; their interaction with adjacent nuclei is the main cause of chemical bonding. The name "electron" comes from
