<span>The correct answer is: (D) Generator

Explanation:
In wind-powered systems, the wind energy turns the blades around the rotor of a wind turbine. That rotor is connected to a generator that generates electricity. In other words, the kinectic energy of the wind is converted into electrical energy by using the generator in the wind-powered systems.</span>

Answer:

C) TURBINE

Explanation:

As we know that wind powered system is used to generate electricity using wind energy.

Here wind powered system has different components

1) Blades: these are long plates connected to the turbine. when these plates encountered high speed wind they start rotating on its axle.

This will produce kinetic energy in the axle which is transferred to the turbine.

2) Turbine: It is used to convert mechanical energy of the wind into useful electrical energy.

This is continuously driven by the kinetic energy of wind

So here correct answer is

C) Turbine

A man standing on the Earth can exert the same force with his legs as when he is standing

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the analogy of the problem we are made to know that "a man standing on the earth can exert the same force with his legs as when he is standing on the moon".

This force he is exerting is due to his weight. If he can have the same weight on the earth and moon, therefore:

weight = mass x acceleration due gravity

His mass and acceleration due to gravity on both terrestrial bodies are the same.

So, his jump height will be the same on earth and on the moon.

In summary, we have been shown that his mass and the acceleration due to gravity on both planets are the same, therefore, his weight will also be the same. His jump height will also be same.

1.) What things signal the coming of spring?

olasank [31]

Answer:

In Explanation

Explanation:

The signs of the coming of spring include firstly the sight of Robins. It is believed that the sight and singing of the Robins is considered arrival of spring by many in the US. Secondly, the winter is not yet over but the blooming of Daffodils first of all flowers is indication of the spring. As the air gets warmer the flowers bud and new leaves start growing on trees since the days also begin to get longer providing much warmth which also an indicator of the spring.
Without the axial tilt of our Earth, firstly, the Sun would have remained above the equator (Equinox) forever but fortunately due to the tilt we get equinoxes twice a year and not forever. Moreover, the temperature and precipitation levels would not vary much and the equator would remain always warm and the poles always cold. Secondly, due to the tilt as the Earth orbits around the Sun and with changes in solstices we get variety of the seasons which would have been impossible otherwise.
