What are the two types of modern wind turbines?

<span>There are two types of modern wind turbines. In a Verical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs), the shaft is mounted on a vertical axis perpendicular to the ground. They are aligned with the wind so there’s no adjustment necessary when the wind direction changes. It can’t start moving on itself that is why it needs a boost from its electrical system to get started. It uses wires for support so the rotor elevation is lower. They are less efficient than HAWTs due to its lower elevation. Lower elevation means slower wind due to ground interferences. The other type is Horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs), the shaft s mounted horizontally parallel to the ground. It is constantly aligned with the wind using a yaw-adjustment mechanism. This mechanism moves the entire rotor left or right in small increments. It uses a tower to lift the turbine components to an optimum elevation for wind speed and take up very little ground space. It is much more efficient than VAWT. </span>

Answer:

1: 7.8 cm

2: .7 cm

3: 5.55 cm

For the other questions, you have to use a ruler yourself and measure using cm. :)

1 cm = 10 millimeter. To convert, just add a 0 to the end of cm to find the mm (or move the decimal one place to the right.)

For example, 2.6 cm = 26 mm / 5 cm = 50 mm. Hope this helps!

Compare photosynthesis and respiration with regard to each of the following
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Photosynthesis Vs. Respiration

1) Photosynthesis gets it's energy from sunlight, and uses the sunlight to change water and CO2 into energy. Cellular respiration gets it's energy from glucose molecules and oxygen.

2) Photosynthesis uses energy, CO2, and water to make energy and releases oxygen. Cellular respiration uses glucose molecules and oxygen to make energy, and releases CO2 and water.

3) Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria, and photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts.

Explain the systems and structures and how they are used by the plant to maintain homeostasis.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The given image shows - the Stomata that helps in maintaining homeostasis in the plants.

Explanation:

Stomata are the small structure resemble as tiny or pinholes that found on the underside of the leaves and play many roles in the plant. Stomata help in the gas exchange and also helps in transpiration.  It allows oxygen a gas and water in vapor form from the leaves to the outer environment and let carbon dioxide inside the cell.

This system also helps in transpiration by closing and opening stomata with the help of their guard cell by becoming turgid and flaccid by osmotic pressure.
