What device is used harness the energy in wind and convert it into electricity?
A wind turbine is used to convert the wind into energy.
What device is used to harness the energy in wind and convert into the electricity?
A wind turbine is used to convert the wind into energy.
What kind of energy are wind turbine generators used to create?
Wind turbine generators are used to convert the kinetic (movement) energy of the wind directly into electrical energy, which is used to power electrical appliances and needs no further conversion.
What kind of energy does a turbine have?
mechanical energy
Why do you use wind turbine?
Wind turbines utilize wind energy to convert it to usable electrical energy. Specifically, the kinetic energy of the air molecules spin a turbine within an electromagnetic field, the kinetic energy of the turbine is then converted to electrical energy due to the presence of the electromagnetic field.
Is a wind turbine a renewable energy sources?
Yes, a wind turbine is a renewable energy source!!
A wind turbine changes what kind of energy into electrical energy?
kinetic (the energy in the moving air)
How does wind power produce electricity?
In essence, the wind turbine collects kinetic energy from the wind and transfers it to the generator. The blades on the turbine turn as the wind blows. As these blades move, they rotate a shaft connected to the rotor of a generator. The spinning magnets of the generator convert that rotational energy into electricity.
What energy source does a wind turbine use?
Wind energy.
What does Wind Turbine mean?
A wind turbine is like a giant fan that produces energy from the wind
How wind turbines convert mechanical energy into electrical energy?
With a generator mounted on the "turbine". The propeller spins the generator shaft.
Is a wind turbine an example of sound energy?
No. A wind turbine uses mechanical energy (the moving air) to generate electrical energy.
