    Hello!

    The answer is c. Customers would not receive electricity.

    Why?

    Let's discard each option in order to find the correct answer:

    a. The petroleum would not burn: False, It does not depend on the power lines in a petroleum power plant. Actually, petroleum burning in petroleum power plants depends on boilers.

    b. Steam would not be produced.: False, Steam production depends only on the heat generation and water supply of boilers.

    c. Customers would not receive electricity: True, If the power lines were broken, customers would not receive electricity, power lines are used to transmit the generated electricity to the clients. The petroleum power plant will become useless since there is no way to transmit electrical energy if the power lines are not working.

    d. Energy would not be converted: False, actually the energy will be converted but not transmitted. Energy conversion starts and the boilers (heat energy.) and end on the outlet of the electrical generators (mechanical to electrical energy)

    Have a nice day!
