The majority of wind turbines consist of three blades mounted to a tower made from tubular steel. There are less common varieties with two blades, or with concrete or steel lattice towers. At 100 feet or more above the ground, the tower allows the turbine to take advantage of faster wind speeds found at higher altitudes.
Turbines catch the wind's energy with their propeller-like blades, which act much like an airplane wing. When the wind blows, a pocket of low-pressure air forms on one side of the blade. The low-pressure air pocket then pulls the blade toward it, causing the rotor to turn. This is called lift. The force of the lift is much stronger than the wind's force against the front side of the blade, which is called drag. The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller. So therefore your answer would be A.

The amount of oxygen that are produced when 1.06 grams of potassium chlorate decompose completely is 0.64 grams.
<h3>What is the relation between mass & moles?</h3>
Relation between the mass and moles of any substance will be represented as:
- n = W/M, where
- W = given mass
- M = molar mass
Moles of potassium chlorate = 1.66g / 122.5g/mol = 0.0135mole
Given chemical reaction is:
2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂
From the stoichiometry of the reaction, it is clear that:
2 moles of KClO₃ = produces 3 moles of O₂
0.0135 moles of KClO₃ = produces (3/2)(0.0135)=0.02 moles of O₂
Mass of oxygen = (0.02mol)(32g/mol) = 0.64 g
Hence produced mass of oxygen is 0.64 grams.
