A wind turbine takes in energy from wind with the goal of converting it into electrical energy. Much of the wind energy is also

converted into the kinetic energy of the spinning turbine and heat lost to the air around it. An illustration of a windmill with a wide arrow away from it labeled kinetic energy of wind 3000 J and it separates into 3 different arrows, one labeled electric energy 750 J, the second labeled heat 750 J and the third which is the widest labeled kinetic energy of turbine blank J. If the goal of the turbine is to put out electric energy, what is the efficiency of the turbine? 25% 50% 75% 100%.

The efficiency of the turbine is 50%.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Kinetic energy of the wind, E = 3000 J</em>
  • <em>Output electrical energy, E(out) = 750 J</em>
  • <em>Energy lost to heat, E(lost) = 750 J</em>
  • <em>Kinetic energy of the turbine, E(in) = ?</em>

The kinetic energy of the turbine which is the input energy is calculated as follows;

E(in) = 3000 - (750 + 750)

E(in) = 1500 J

The efficiency of the turbine is calculated as follows;

E_f_f = \frac{E_{(out)}}{E_{(in)}} \times 100\%\\\\E_f_f = \frac{750}{1500} \times 100\%\\\\E_f_f = 50  \%

Thus, the efficiency of the turbine is 50%.

When astronomers look at distant galaxies, what sort of motion do they see?
arlik [135]
Hello! You can call me Emac or Eric.

I understand your problem, that question is pretty hard. But I found some information that I think you should read. This can get your problem done quickly.

Please hit that thank you button if that helped, I don’t want thank you’s I just want to know that this helped.

Please reply if this doesn’t help, I will try my best to gather more information or a answer.

Here is some good information that could help you out a lot!


Let’s begin by exploring some techniques astronomers use to study how galaxies are born and change over cosmic time. Suppose you wanted to understand how adult humans got to be the way they are. If you were very dedicated and patient, you could actually observe a sample of babies from birth, following them through childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood, and making basic measurements such as their heights, weights, and the proportional sizes of different parts of their bodies to understand how they change over time.

Unfortunately, we have no such possibility for understanding how galaxies grow and change over time: in a human lifetime—or even over the entire history of human civilization—individual galaxies change hardly at all. We need other tools than just patiently observing single galaxies in order to study and understand those long, slow changes.

We do, however, have one remarkable asset in studying galactic evolution. As we have seen, the universe itself is a kind of time machine that permits us to observe remote galaxies as they were long ago. For the closest galaxies, like the Andromeda galaxy, the time the light takes to reach us is on the order of a few hundred thousand to a few million years. Typically not much changes over times that short—individual stars in the galaxy may be born or die, but the overall structure and appearance of the galaxy will remain the same. But we have observed galaxies so far away that we are seeing them as they were when the light left them more than 10 billion years ago.


That is some information, I do have more if you need some! Thanks!

Have a great rest of your day/night! :)

What direction does current flow from a battery in a series circuit?
telo118 [61]
What's now called "Conventional current" is thought of as the flow of positive charge, from the battery's positive terminal to its negative one.

But it turns out that positive charges don't flow. The physical flow of charge is the flow of electrons. They come out of the battery's negative terminal, and carry negative charge around the circuit to the battery's positive one.
