The cottage industry was replaced by mills?
The cottage industry that was replaced by mills was the production of yarn and cotton thread. The production of flour was also a cottage industry that was replaced by huge mills.
Why were mills located along fast moving streams?
Sawmills and flour mills are located on rivers and streams because waterwheels powered the cutting and grinding machines.
What are some positive effect of wind?
To provide power (wind mills) To cool down things To blow dust and sediment away
How do you use hydroelectric energy in a sentence?
The power to run early grain mills came from hydroelectric energy provided through water wheels.
Is cocoa puffs a common noun or a proper noun?
The compound noun 'Cocoa Puffs' is a proper noun, the name of a specific product; a registered trademark of General Mills.
How can you transform water in to energy?
Waterwheels once commonly drove the machinery in corn mills, cotton mills, etc, and are samples of using water to create energy. In a modern hydro-electrical generating plant, water is piped through turbines, which turn generators, and so produce electricity.
How is wind used directly?
For examples in wind turbines or wind mills.
What is the age difference between Juliet Mills and Maxwell Caulfiel?
20 years
How does a windmill turn wind into energy?
Wind Mills are used to pump water from the earth. Although some wind mills were retrofitted to produce electricity. Wind turbines have large blades that are designed to create lift to turn a rotor. In large scale turbines the rotor usually connects to a gearbox. The gearbox will then be connected to a generator. The generator similar but much larger is like the alternator in a car, produces the electricity. Then the electricity goes into a transformer then to the grid. There are a lot of different designs of wind turbines and some might not have all these components but they all have generators.
What is the difference between textile factories and cotton mills?
Cotton mills make cotton thread. Textile factories turn any thread into cloth.
Are wind mills renewable or non-renewable?
The turbines (mills) themselves are non-renewable but the wind the power source that is converted into useful work (usually electricity) is renewable.
What can be used to generate electricity but are useful only when the wind blows consistently?
wind turbines, wind mills.
What is the difference between fibreboard and chipboard?
In Canadian lumber mills at least, chipboard is made with smaller particles than fibreboard.
What machines rely on tidal power to work?
Machines such as flour mills used to rely on the moving water of the river to work. Now most milling is powered by electricity, which can be obtained from a variety of sources, including renewable tidal energy.
Is there wind mills used today in the US?
Yes in producing wind energy as a form of electricity. Some places now have whole hillsides with wind turbines/mills to produce electrical energy for the area.
Do wind mills work when there is no wind?
No, windmills require wind to generate power by spinning their turbines. If there is no wind, windmills will not be able to operate.
What is the difference between wind mill and wind turbine?
A windmill is a structure that uses wind power to grind grain or pump water, often for traditional or agricultural purposes. A wind turbine, on the other hand, is a device that converts wind energy into electricity for commercial use. Wind turbines are typically larger and more complex than windmills.
