Is this a trick question?

The name would suggest wind energy.

More scientifically perhaps, you could say it is the kinetic energy of the air molecules as they are pushed from high to low pressure pockets (i.e. wind).

What kind of energy is a windmill?

Windmill composed of 2 energies. One is the mechanical energy. To make it work the force of the wind allows the windmill to run and this process produces the second energy called the wind energy.


Does a windmill transform energy?

Yes, a windmill transforms the kinetic energy from wind into mechanical energy that can be used to do work, such as grind grains or generate electricity.


What are windmill vanes called?

Windmill vanes are called blades or sails. These are attached to the rotor of the windmill and capture the wind's energy to generate power or perform mechanical work.


Is this windmill work by magnet?

No its work by wind...hence windmill.


If windmills dont work how do people who use wind energy still get electricity?

A windmill produced electricity while the wind blows. It may produce energy when the wind blows and people don't need it. People don't need all the energy a windmill produces all the time but they may need energy when the wind is not blowing. Windmills are therefore linked up to battery systems and charge the batteries when the wind is blowing, energy is being produced, and nobody is using it. When people need energy and the wind is not blowing (no power is being produced) they use power from the batteries.


What kind of energy does a refrigerator need to work?

Nowadays, refrigerators are normally designed to use electrical energy.


What is the main purpose of a windmill?

It is a mill. The wind is a power source

What is the name of the part that moves on a windmill?

The part that moves on a windmill is called the rotor or blades. These are responsible for capturing the wind's energy and converting it into rotational motion to generate electricity or perform mechanical work.

What does the windmail do?

A windmill spins around in a circle and the wind pushes against the windmill to make it spin around in a circle. Also, when it spins it makes energy it helps with the electricity. For an example: All the energy that comes from the windmill goes to power lines or solar panels and the power lines and solar panels send the energy to TV cords or light switches allowing the TV or lights to work by just simply using the energy from the windmills.


What to do to make a model on conservation of energy?

Make a small prototype of a "Helical" windmill which is very simple and innovative if you can get a fabricator to work for you. And yes...a helical windmill is one which rotates(and in the same direction) irrespective of the wind direction.
