  • what is the useful energy in wind turbine?
    kinetic to electrical
  • electricity using renewable energy resources?
    • hydroelectric power
    • wind power
  • tuning fork?
    Hitting the tuning fork causes all the air molecules around it to vibrate.
    This sets up a chain of movement and waves of air molecules stretching out and being compressed.
  • how to calculate acceleration?
    a = v-u/t
  • distance = u2-v2/2a
  • renewable energy?

    solar energy
    geothermal energy
  • why cant the turbine use all its kinetic energy?
    air would start “accumulating” behind the rotor and would start blocking the incoming wind
  • how does oil improve the efficiency of a bike?

    Mechanical devices can be made more efficient through lubrication to reduce the friction between moving parts of a machine and increase the amount of useful energy transferred.
