How wind energy can be used to produce electricity?
Answers
Answer:
Wind turbines use blades to collect the wind's kinetic energy. Wind flows over the blades creating lift (similar to the effect on airplane wings), which causes the blades to turn. The blades are connected to a drive shaft that turns an electric generator, which produces (generates) electricity.

Answer:
How wind energy can be used to produce electricity?
Explanation:
Wind energy is an important source of renewable energy. The landmass and water bodies by solar radiation generate air movement and cause winds to blow. This kinetic energy of the wind can be used to do work.
A windmill essentially consists of a structure similar to a large electric fan that is erected at some height on a rigid support. To generate electricity, the rotatory motion of the windmill is used to turn the turbine of the electric generator. The output of a single windmill is quite small and cannot be used for commercial purposes. Therefore, a number of windmills are erected over a large area, which is known as wind energy farms. The energy output of each windmill in a farm is coupled together to get electricity on a commercial scale.
