What kind of energy does coal produce?
A coal plant can produce different amount of energy. It depends on the size of the plant.
Explain efficiency and how to calculate it for different simple machines?
Efficiency means to calculate that is the machine is efficient enough to save your bill or use less electricity. To calculate the formula is:Efficiency = Energy output (what is the machine producing) divided by Energy input (what is the machine taking or using).
What can cause kinetic energy to change into thermal energy?
Friction can cause kinetic energy to change into thermal energy
What are other energy besides fossil fuels?
Fossil fuel is not energy its a energy source and yes there is more energy sources besides the fossil fuel like coal and others.
What are energy sources other than fossil fuel called?
Re-newable
What exactly does a rooftop wind turbine do?
A rooftop wind turbine produces wind power, and can reach speeds between two and 45 miles per hour. It is a better alternative to air conditioning, and saves lots of energy.
What different forms of energy are demonstrated by these devices?
The solar panel harnesses solar energy and converts it to electricity. The wind turbine converts wind energy into mechanical power and then electricity. The battery stores electrical energy for later use.
What are the Different types of energy that uses a turbine?
Some types of energy that use a turbine include wind energy (wind turbine), hydroelectric energy (hydro turbine), and thermal energy (steam turbine in coal, gas, or nuclear power plants). Turbines are used to convert the energy from various sources into mechanical energy that can be used to generate electricity.
What does a wind turbine turn kinetic energy into?
A wind turbine turns kinetic energy from the wind into mechanical energy by rotating the turbine blades. The mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy by a generator inside the turbine.
Why the type of energy stored in water at the reservoir is different from the energy stored in water at the penstock and turbine hydrppower?
The energy stored in water at the reservoir is gravitational potential energy due to its height above the turbine. As the water flows through the penstock and turbine, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and then ultimately into mechanical energy to turn the turbine and generate electricity. So, the type of energy changes as the water moves through the components of a hydropower system.
How a wind turbine used?
The wind turbines is a machine that converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as a pump or grinding stones, The machine is usually called a windmill. If the energy is then converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator, wind turbine, or wind energy converter.
What type of energy does the steam in a steam turbine have?
It is heat energy. The turbine turns heat energy into mechanical energy.
What is inside a wind turbine?
A wind turbine generates electricity by converting its kinetic energy into electric energy. The kinetic energy of the wind transfers to the turbine, and the kinetic energy of the turbine converts to electric energy as it spins within an electromagnetic field.
What energy changes take place in the turbine?
In a turbine, mechanical energy from the moving fluid (such as steam or water) is converted into rotational kinetic energy of the turbine blades. This rotational kinetic energy is then converted into electrical energy as the turbine drives a generator to produce electricity.
What is energy that causes a turbine to turn in order to generate electricity?
Turbines are scroll-shaped devices designed to convert linear energy flows into rotary flows. Thus enabling devices such as electric generators. The driving energy source could include steam, wind, and water, depending on application.
How do you get energy from flowing water?
Energy can be extracted from flowing water by using either hydroelectric turbines or wave energy devices. In hydroelectric turbines, the force of the water turns the blades of the turbine, which then spins a generator to produce electricity. Wave energy devices capture the energy from the movement of waves and convert it into electricity through a similar process.
Is a wind turbine a renewable energy sources?
Yes, a wind turbine is a renewable energy source!!
