Options

• its temperature increases

• larger amount of potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

• the electricity content of water increases with height

• more water molecules dissociate into ions

Answer 1

larger amount of potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation - 

In a hydroelectric power plant more electrical power can be generated if water falls from a greater height because larger amount of potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
