A wind turbine generates electricity by converting its kinetic energy into electric energy. The kinetic energy of the wind transfers to the turbine, and the kinetic energy of the turbine converts to electric energy as it spins within an electromagnetic field.

Who invented the first wind turbine?
The inventor of the wind turbine was Charles F. Brush in 1888.
What is a wind turnbind?
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.
What does a wind turbine do?
A wind turbines uses the wind to power an electricity generator.
How can a 5mph wind turn a wind turbine?
With a new kind of wind turbine called a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) that can produce electricity in winds as low as 5 mph.
How do you make a wind energy project?
Buy a wind turbine or a windmill.
What does the turbine inside of a wind mill do?
it turns
How do windmill collect energy?
The wind turbine/windmill has a generator inside of it, which converts the wind into energy!
Can you get paid to clean the inside of a wind turbine?
Definately. Its a type of job.
How does the wind turbine operate?
Well wind causes the blades to spin, which cause energy. Which goes inside the turbine by wires. Then the energy passes through a generator making electricity.
What does turbines mean?
A wind turbine is like a giant fan that produces energy from the wind
What happens inside a wind turbine?
usually an wind turbine consists of large gears at its shaft point which produces slow speed to high speed to run the generator coupled to it
What does a wind turbine make?
A wind turbine makes wind for scientific study.
How do windmills create energy or how does the generator work inside one?
Basically, the wind moves the fins that move the turbine. The turbine then creates electrical energy. (See how does a turbine work)
Which object converts wind power to electricity?
A windmill or a wind turbine. Once there is enough wind the blades turn the generator inside. This generates electricity.
Why does wind generate electricity?
Wind itself does not generate electricity, but using wind turbines it is converted into mechanical energy and the mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy. "Simply stated, a wind turbine works the opposite of a fan. Instead of using electricity to make wind, like a fan, wind turbines use wind to make electricity. The wind turns the blades, which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator and makes electricity. Take a look inside a wind turbine to see the various parts. View the wind turbine animation to see how a wind turbine works."
What does wind turbine help?
a wind turbine generates electricity for or use
What does Wind Turbine mean?
A wind turbine is like a giant fan that produces energy from the wind
