What type of current does the wind stir up?

The wind stirs up alternating current (AC) when it rotates the rotor blades of a wind turbine. The mechanical energy from the wind is converted into electrical energy in the generator of the wind turbine, producing AC electricity.


How is the wind energy source collected and turned into usable energy?

By using wind turbine, linear wind motion is turn to circular motion turning the dynamo and transformed to direct current electrical energy. Wind generated electricity from the wind turbine usually varied in current and voltage, the unsteady electricity is then pass through to regulator to a steady voltage and either transformed from a direct current (DC) to alternative current (AC) for use with home appliance or stock up into battery for later use.


What are the differences between a surface current and a wave?

Surface currents are the horizontal movement of water caused by wind and the Earth's rotation, while waves are the vertical movement of water caused by the transfer of energy through wind or seismic activity. Surface currents flow in a consistent direction, while waves oscillate up and down as they travel across the surface of the water.


What is the past tense of wind up?
