Wind energy can be converted to electricity by wind turbines in many formats. The electricity an be used in anything.
Wind energy can be converted directly to mechanical energy (Dutch Windmills) to power pumps or mills.
Wind energy can be used as a motive force for sail boats and ice boats.
It help green housewives dry their clothes
Kites use wind energy to lift weights and amuse children.
Aeolian harps are made to play.
Sailplanes or gliders use wind to power their flight
Theo Jansen uses wind to make sculptures that walk across the land (http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=sNA_bd0b1bw)
An aside: Seems this could be made into a poem!
What else can I help you with?
How is solar energy an example of wind?
It's not (unless you mean solar wind which sends charged particles shooting through space where the collide with gas in the Earth's atmosphere to form Auroras). Solar Energy is an example of renewable energy, like wind and water power.
What are 5 differences between solar and wind energy?
solar energy is energy from the sun and wind energy is energy from the wind
What measures wind direction and strength?
Wind direction and strength are typically measured using an instrument called an anemometer. An anemometer can detect wind speed using cups that rotate in response to wind, as well as wind direction using a vane that points into the wind. These measurements are important for various purposes, such as weather forecasting, aviation, and renewable energy.
Why might using other sources of power like wind and solar energy help to slow global warming?
Because renewable energy, like wind and solar, has no greenhouse gas emissions.
Did wind possesses both kinetic and potential energy?
Blowing wind has kinetic energy. This can be transformed into electrical energy using a turbine to transform the wind into rotational kinetic energy and a generator or alternator to convert the rotational kinetic energy to electrical energy. Water above a dam has potential energy from gravity and also from the weight of the water around it. Once it is moving or flowing down through the pipes it then has kinetic energy.
How did people first start using wind energy?
it started with the sailing ships back in Egypt, and then windmills up to Europe
Would this stop people from using wind energy?
No but ya mumma will!
What is a sentence using the word wind energy?
I'm looking into wind energy.
Does energy come from wind?
Yes, wind energy is generated from the kinetic energy of the wind. This energy can be harnessed using wind turbines to generate electricity.
How much of wind energy is the US Using?
Around 2% of energy consumption is wind energy.
What is a sentence for wind energy?
wind energy comes out of a turbine and is turned into energy
How To Capture Energy from Wind?
Wind energy can be captured using wind turbines, which convert the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical power. The spinning blades of a wind turbine drive a generator, producing electricity. Wind farms are typically installed in areas with consistent and strong wind patterns to maximize energy production.
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.
Is wind and wind energy the same thing?
No, wind refers to the natural movement of air, while wind energy is the energy harnessed from the wind to generate electricity using wind turbines. Wind energy is a renewable and sustainable source of power.
What are the disadvantages of using wind energy and solar energy?
Solar energy is not available when the day is cloudy.Wind energy is not available when wind is not blowing.
Have people learned to use less energy?
i think people have learned to use less energy from certian things like gas, coal, or oil by using solar, wind, and water to make energy, but in general no. if anything people are using more energy than ever.
What does wind mean as in energy?
A wind machine called windmills is powered by the energy of the wind. It is designed to convert the energy of the wind into more useful forms using rotating blades.
