    hit the turbine on the sea surface, it becomes generated to electricity and gets transported to a wave energy convertor. Turbines can be housed on the shoreline as well. The production of wave energy comes with consequences. Getting your energy source from waves is only suitable for those who live close to the coast. We would not be able to get this energy to places in the city. The production of wind energy occurs when the kinetic energy of the wind turns the propellers of a wind turbine. The…

    Wind Turbine EEI Discussion– Kate Richards To determine whether the number of blades on the wind turbine changes the amount of electricity or voltage produced, an experiment was carried out using a wind turbine, fan, retort stand, timer and voltage reader (appendix 8). A test for how much voltage was produced from a wind turbine with 4 blades, 8 blades, and 12 blades was carried out 5 times (appendix 2) (appendix 3) (appendix 4). This was repeated 5 times for each number of blades to ensure…
