Question

Compared to all other forms of energy, wind power is most similar to tidal wave power because _____.

the costs are about the same
they generate the same amount of pollution
they are high tech
they work on the premise of a fluid interacting with a turbine

Answer 1

they work on the premise of a fluid interacting with a turbine

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option D, they work on the premise of a fluid interacting with a turbine

Explanation:

Both the tidal and wind wave energies are renewable energy sources and both of them interact with the fluid to harness their potential/kinetic energy to produce electrical energy. A wind wave interact with air to derive energy from it while a tidal wave interact with water waves to derive energy from it. Their mode of operation is also same.
