Detailed Solution

The correct sequence of energy changes taking place in the production of electricity in a hydroelectric dam is:
Kinetic energy → Potential energy → Mechanical energy → Electrical energy.
The dam where electricity is generated using water in which a turbine moves, is called the hydroelectric dam. The kinetic energy of water is stored as potential energy in the dams. This stored water is used to rotate the turbine, due to which mechanical energy is generated. This rotating turbine produces electricity. So, the mechanical energy will be converted into electrical energy. In this way, a hydroelectric dam is used to generate electricity.
