No it is powered by water. The flow of the water generates electricity. A wind turbine uses the wind to generate the electricity
yes
They both produce electricity
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.
The wind turbine converts kinetic energy into wind, which then turns into wind and then mechanical energy. The energy is converted to an electrical generator through a shaft which turns it into electrical energy, or in other words, electricity.
It costs about $75,000 to install a turbine that is powerful enough to sustain the average house.

A wind turbine is a form of electric generation. On top of a tall pole there is a turbine (fan thing) and the wind spins it around. The turbine is connected to a motor which generates an electromagnetic flow from the motion.
A home wind turbine will use the power of wind to provide and generate energy. One can use a home wind turbine at home to provide electricity or heat water, for example.
Wind can be used to pump water from wells AND/OR generate electricity. Wind-powered boats or ships are called SAILboats. Hot air balloons are driven by the wind. There are even wind turbine powered sailboats. Sailplanes (gliders) soar AND glide on the wind. Plus, we breathe it. Without aspiration, plants and tress would suffocate. In many cases, this requires wind movement.
No, wind energy refers to the kinetic energy generated by the movement of air, while a wind turbine is a device that converts this energy into usable electricity through the rotation of its blades. Wind energy is the source, and a wind turbine is the technology used to harness that energy.
A windmill uses movement of water or wind to spin a turbine. This is a natural way to make energy and keep it for future use.
A wind-powered bike uses the force of the wind to turn a turbine or propeller, which then generates electricity. This electricity powers a motor that drives the bike forward, harnessing the natural energy of the wind to propel itself.
