How is air used to generate energy?
Air/wind can turn a fan or windmill that is connected to a generator in the same way that water is converted to steam in order to turn a turbine. Air, and more specifically wind, is used to power windmills, that cause a turbine to turn, and generate electricity.
How can geothermal energy can be used to generate electricity?
let the geothernal energy to boil the water, then use the stream to generate the electricity. it is the same way when you use coal generate the electricity. but the detail system is very complicated.
How can water and wind be harnessed to generate electricity?
They both power turbines which rotate to generate electricity. A turbine works the same way as an electric motor.
Explain how water and wind can be harnessed to generate electricity?
They both power turbines which rotate to generate electricity. A turbine works the same way as an electric motor.
What is the difference between motor and alternator?
Both are actually the same in many ways. A regular motor can be used to generate electricity if turned by an outside source(pulley and belt) Example,,,wind generators are basically motors operated by the paddles of the windmill turning the armature of the motor.
Does biomass use heat to generate electricity?
Yes, you burn biomass to generate electricity, the same as a fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) power station, except without causing global warming.
How many sails are there on a windmill?
it isn't always the same, but genorally four. the wind turbines used for generating electricity however, usually have three
How do fossil fuels nuclear energy and solar energy generate electricity in the same way?
becase there weird
What does hydro-electricity do?
Hyro-electricity is the same as any other electricity. the Hydro- prefix merely denotes how the electricity was generated, in this case it was generated at a hydro-electric plant which uses the potential energy of elevated water to generate electricity.
How does the number of blades on a windmill affect it?
not if the windmill has the same surface area
Is the wind energy same as wind turbine?
Wind energy is converted into electricity by spinning wind turbine. Any electric motor that is powered by electricity will generate electricity if you spin it yourself very fast.
How is wind use to generate electricity?
Wind energy is used to generate electricity in a manner similar to the way water is used for the same purpose. The wind turns the blades of a giant turbine, which looks like a big fan, and the turbine turns a shaft. When the shaft turns it spins a generator which causes it to make electricity.
