The maximum amount of electricity that on-shore wind farms can produce is 200 kWh/d per person under ideal conditions i.e. covering the entire nation in wind turbines.
The following steps are taken in the energy conversion process while producing electricity from wind turbines:
First, the wind strikes the turbine blades and transfers its kinetic energy to them. A generator is attached to the turbine blades. The generator shaft is turned by the kinetic energy of the turbine blades.
The generator then produces electricity out of the kinetic energy of the blades.

Solar is inconsistent due to time of day and/or weather.
Nuclear creates long lasting radioactive waste.
Hydroelectric construction of this resource destroys river ecosystems.
Coal creates pollution when burned.
Wind is inconsistent due to only to weather.
Climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Latitude is the greatest factor that determines climate in any given location. Correct answer: C Latitude provides the location of a place north or south of the equator and is expressed by angular measurements ranging from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles. Latitude determines climate, because different latitudes on Earth receive different amounts of sunlight. Higher latitudes receive less heat than lower latitude areas nearer the equator and average temperatures cool with increasing latitude, producing well-defined climatic zones on the planet.
Hydraulic fracturing using high pressure liquids to break rocks can be used to access deep reservoirs of <u>crude oil. </u>
<h3>What is the use of hydraulic fracturing?</h3>
In a process known as fracking, hydraulic fracturing is done when a fluid is injected into rocks far below the surface.
The aim of this process is to get the rocks to break apart which would then allow the deep reserves of oil to be accessed. This is a major process of crude oil production in the United States.
