Jaden listed the similarities of using coal, natural gas, and petroleum to generate electricity. Coal, natural gas, and petroleum: - use turbines - require heat - convert electrical energy to kinetic energy - produce pollution in the form of smoke Which best describes Jaden's mistake? Only coal-fired power plants use turbines. Power plants do not require heat. Kinetic energy is converted to electrical energy. Coal does not produce pollution.

    Jaden's mistake is ' convert electrical energy to kinetic energy'. He should have said 'Kinetic energy is converted to electrical energy'. Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object. Coal, natural gas and petroleum are used to power turbines. The spinning turbines then possess kinetic energy. Turning a turbine about a magnet/magnetic field then converts kinetic energy to electrical energy.
