There are a few things on the backs of Wind Turbines:
1) Anemometers - wind speed sensors that help the turbine fine tune its blade pitch to be most efficient.
2) Wind Vanes - wind direction sensors that keep the turbine lined up with the wind, or turn it away from the wind when the gusts are too strong and can damage the turbine.
3) Visibility Lighting - red and white lights to meet requirements of aviation authorities for visibility.

What makes a wind turbine move?
Wind makes the turbine move and the wind makes elctrecity.
How a wind power system produce electricity?
The wind turns a wind turbine. The turbine turns a generator.
How can you generate power using a mini wind turbine?
To generate power using the mini wind turbine you will have to install a small wind turbine and connect it to the grid.
How much wind can one wind turbine generate in one year?
A wind turbine is not designed to generate wind, it uses wind and generates electricity.
What happens to wind turbines when the wind stops blowing?
The wind turbine is entirely dependant on wind. if the wind stops blowing, the turbine stops spinning.
What does a wind turbine make?
A wind turbine makes wind for scientific study.
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
What makes a wind turbine move?
Wind makes the turbine move and the wind makes elctrecity.
How is wind created in a wind turbine?
wind is not created by the turbine but wind that passes through the turbine causes it to turn, and the faster the turbine spins the more energy is created that can be turned into electricity and other resources. Hope This Helps :)
How a wind power system produce electricity?
The wind turns a wind turbine. The turbine turns a generator.
What is another name for a wind tower?
Another name for a windmill is the wind turbine
Is there such thing as a small wind turbine?
Yes, one can get them to fit onto the back of yachts.
How can you generate power using a mini wind turbine?
To generate power using the mini wind turbine you will have to install a small wind turbine and connect it to the grid.
How will you get a large amount of electricity with having a wind turbine in the back of your garden?
You would need to have a very large wind turbine system in your back yard. Failing to have the money to purchase an expensive wind system, you can purchase a couple of smaller ones that can run part of your home on windy days.
What does a wind turbine look like?
a wind turbine looks like a giant fan
How is a wind turbine a example of mechanical energy?
This is so because when a wind turbine turns or spins it exerts wind
