Question
a lol diagram is created to represent the energy transformations occurring during the operation of a wind turbine that generates electricity. which variables should be included in the diagram? the amount of mechanical energy, electrical energy, and total energy the amount of radiant energy, mechanical energy, and total energy the amount of kinetic energy, sound energy, and total energy the amount of wind energy, thermal energy, and total energy
A wind turbine converts wind energy (kinetic energy of air) into mechanical energy (rotation of turbine blades) and then into electrical energy. According to the law of conservation of energy, the total energy (sum of different forms of energy in the system) should also be included. Radiant energy (like light - related energy) is not relevant to a wind - turbine's energy transformation. Sound energy and thermal energy are not the main forms of energy in the primary energy transformation of a wind turbine for electricity generation.
