Second Blog (Wind Turbine)
Last semester we did a project, making a wind turbine I learn that you can make energy from a wind turbine. You use a wind Turbine to make power and energy. I learned that power is the rate of energy generation overtime, and energy is the capacity of a system to do work. Also I learned that a wind turbine is an alternative energy. An alternative energy is the name given to any type of energy used to replace a different source of energy. A wind turbine is a device that converts kinetic energy from the wind into mechanical energy. The wind turbines are made up of prepellers, a shft and a generator. The propellers are designed to spin in the wind. The spinning motion turns the shaft, which powers the generator and creates electricity.I learn that wind turbines are used to generate large amounts of electricity in wind farms.
