What is the connection between the suns energy and the wind?
Describe the connection between the sun's energy and the wind.
Why is wind power a renewable energy source?
Wind power is described as a renewable energy source because winds are produced by the suns thermal energy and this is never going to fail or need other sources of energy.
Where does the wind get its energy from?
The Sun. A fraction of the suns energy heats the air. Warm air rises higher into the atmosphere and cooler, more dense, air moves in to replace it causing the wind.
Difference between wind power and wind energy?
There really is no difference.
What are two differences between using solar energy and wind energy?
1. solar energy you get from the sun while wind energy you get from the wind 2. solar energy you have to have solar things (ex solar ovens) wind energy you need a windmill for.
What is the connection between the suns energy and the wind?
Describe the connection between the sun's energy and the wind.
What is the connection between wind and fire?
fire grows with wind
Why is wind power a renewable energy source?
Wind power is described as a renewable energy source because winds are produced by the suns thermal energy and this is never going to fail or need other sources of energy.
What are 5 differences between solar and wind energy?
solar energy is energy from the sun and wind energy is energy from the wind
Where does the wind get its energy from?
The Sun. A fraction of the suns energy heats the air. Warm air rises higher into the atmosphere and cooler, more dense, air moves in to replace it causing the wind.
What is the difference between solar energy and wind energy?
The difference between solar energy and wind energy is that solar energy comes from the sun and is in the form of waves. However they are both renewable energy resources.
Difference between wind power and wind energy?
There really is no difference.
What is the difference between wind energy and wind turbines?
. Wind energy is the energy taken from the wind that makes the rotor blade of the wind turbine to rotate, so that an alternator coupled to it can generate electricity. Wind turbine is a huge apparatus designed to transform wind energy into electricity.
What are two differences between using solar energy and wind energy?
1. solar energy you get from the sun while wind energy you get from the wind 2. solar energy you have to have solar things (ex solar ovens) wind energy you need a windmill for.
How do wind turbines harness the suns energy?
It happens because the Sun heats the ground in the daytime and that heats the air above, which causes winds to flow and drive the blades of the wind turbines.
Should wind energy be considered a form of solar energy?
no because solar is not few wind is for different things that are solar energy ^ is that english? technically i guess... the suns heat changes the air temperature [pressure], the hot and cold molecules displace one another [push against each other] and create 'wind'
What are the differences between hydroelectric energy and wind energy?
Hydroelectric energy uses water to turn large turbines in damns to generate electricity, while wind energy uses wind to turn wind turbines to generate electricity.
