How did windmills work?
with wind
How are windmills powered-?
A windmill runs off of the energy that the wind provides. The wind blows against the blades of the windmill and turns them, causing them to turn a turbine. This turbine converts wind energy to kinetic energy, something that we can store and harness.
What is inside of a windmill?
Old windmills had grinding stones that were used to mill grain into flour, these were powered by the wind.
Disadvantages of wind farms?
A disadvantage of a wind farm is if it isn't windy the windmills don't work
