The wind catches the sales which are forced around. Windmills have a mechanism that when it turned by the miller the sales turn more in to the wind and less as required to regulate the turning speed.

How does wind power work?
Wind power is used by having wind push a turbine or mill so that turns and makes energy.
Does the speed of a wind mill determine the amount of electricity?
yes it does. the faster the blade turns the more electricity it produces
Can a wind mill operate in high winds?
High winds are the ideal condition for a wind mill.
What is the basic principle of wind mill?
The basic principle behind the wind mill is that the wind as an external force changes the static force to a kinetic force(from rest to motion).This kinetic energy rotates the wind mill blades which produces electricity.
How do you make electricity with wind?
a windmill is used for this purpose. the wind makes the mill go around wich turns the mechanism that makes the electricity. in the related links box below I posted the wikipedia windmill article.
What does the turbine inside of a wind mill do?
it turns
What facts does anyone know about wind power?
the wind turns the wind mill generating wind power
How do wind farms create power?
There is a turbine in the wind mill. When the wind turns the blades on the wind mill, the generator inside cranks backwards createing power. The way it does this is that it turns a copper wire inside. One mill can create enough power for -currently- 90 homes. If there is alot of wind in that area that year.
How does wind power work?

What do you call a structure that turns wind into energy?
A windmill was a structure that used wind to power a mill (or sometimes to pump water), and a wind turbine is a structure that uses wind to create electrical power.
Does the speed of a wind mill determine the amount of electricity?
yes it does. the faster the blade turns the more electricity it produces
How does wind electricity work?
The wind electricity work because of the wind mill, wind mill makes wind energy.
Can a wind mill operate in high winds?
High winds are the ideal condition for a wind mill.
What is the answer to the riddle wind is blowing in a cirlce?
A wind mill.
What are some disadvantages about wind?
Some times to much wind is entered into the wind mill so the wind mill might not be able to produce much or any energy.
What is the purpose of shaft in wind mill?
the purpose of drive shaft is to assist in the generation of electric power in the wind mill
What is the basic principle of wind mill?
The basic principle behind the wind mill is that the wind as an external force changes the static force to a kinetic force(from rest to motion).This kinetic energy rotates the wind mill blades which produces electricity.
