do windmills consist of kinetic and potential energy
Potential energy in a windmill is stored in the height of the blades above the ground. As the wind turns the blades, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy to rotate the turbine and generate electricity.
no -- the windmill converts the kinetic energy from wind to electrical energy. Gravitational energy is another term for potential energy.
On a day when the air is still, a windmill would have potential energy stored in its structure. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy when the wind blows and makes the windmill blades turn.
kinetic energy (potential energy) which transfers to mechanical energy
Windmills use kinetic energy from the moving air to generate electricity. The wind turns the blades of the windmill, which in turn spin a generator to produce electricity. Potential energy is not directly used in this process.

Gravitational potential energy being converted to kinetic energy
The wind is an example of kinetic energy - the energy of motion. It is generally transferred as kinetic erergy to, say, a windmill where it could pump water and the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.
Windmills use kinetic energy from the moving air to generate electricity. The wind turns the blades of the windmill, which in turn spin a generator to produce electricity. Potential energy is not directly used in this process.
The kinetic energy of the moving air (wind) is converted into mechanical energy, which then turns the blades of a windmill. This mechanical energy is further converted into electrical energy through a generator connected to the windmill.
Yes, a windmill uses the kinetic energy of the wind to spin its blades, which in turn drives a generator to produce electricity. The kinetic energy of the wind is converted into mechanical energy and then into electrical energy through this process.
Potential and kinetic energy are related in that potential energy is stored energy that can be converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion. When an object has potential energy, it has the potential to move and therefore has the potential to have kinetic energy.
it has kenetic energy
