What do transformers do in the generation and distribution of electrical energy? Check all that apply.

decrease voltage

convert water into steam

increase voltage

turn turbines

turn generators

1. Decrease Voltage, 2. Increase Voltage

1. Decrease Voltage

2. Increase Voltage (In Step-Up transformers)

Explanation:

Transformers usually deal with the roundabouts of electricity, though, they can be also used in generators to transfer energy, they are also made to manage the flow by increasing or decreasing it. Converting water into steam is usally done by a boiler (Such as the core in a thermonuclear reactor (Boiling Water Reactor)), turning turbines and generators are usually done by mechanical energy, such as the steam flowing through the turbine, or water flowing through the generator/turbine in a hydroelectric power plant.
