What was the key impact of Sir Charles Parsons' invention of the modern steam turbine on marine propulsion and power generation?
It replaced all steam engines immediately without requiring advances in metallurgy or engineering.
It was primarily designed for small-scale household use rather than industrial applications.
It enabled more efficient and reliable conversion of steam energy into mechanical work, revolutionizing ship propulsion and electricity production.

What is the primary mechanism by which a steam turbine converts thermal energy into mechanical work?
High-pressure steam expands and pushes against turbine blades, causing them to rotate
Steam directly heats a piston that moves back and forth to generate motion
Steam cools down and condenses, creating suction that pulls the turbine blades
