A what is a device that changes kinetic energy into electrical energy?
A generator in a power plant converts rotating kinetic energy into electrical energy An electric motor is a device which changes electrical energy into kinetic. For example-- Fans could be like electric energy to kinetic energy...
What energy does windmills convert into electrical energy?
Kinetic
An electric motor converts electrical energy to potential energy?
They don't. An electric motor is designed to convert electrical energy to kinetic energy, not the other way round. A device that converts kinetic energy to electrical energy is called a generator or a dynamo. Sometimes the same device can do both things (convert in both directions), but since the device is especially optimized for one function, it may not be very good at the other one.
Windmills convert what into electrical energy?
Kinetic
