Electricity was a new and little-understood phenomenon in European Physics
laboratories during US colonial times. There was not a single telephone, radio,
Playstation, or light bulb anywhere in North America, for another hundred years.
Think about THAT for a while !

How are tidal waves used to generate electricity for the power grid?
Tidal waves are not used to generate electricity. A tidal wave is a huge wave, rather like a tsunami, that occurs very infrequently, and without warning.Tides are harnessed to produce electricity, and also waves are used, but not tidal waves.
Can an ac motor generate electricity?
An ac motor cannot generate electricity but its shaft can be coupled to that of certain devices like an alternator to in order to generate electricity.
What is an area called where there is a large group of windmills generating electricity?
a wind field
What is one disadvantage of using windmills to generate electicity?
Weather changes. Wind does not blow all the time, and it does not blow at the same speed all the time, so the power output of a wind turbine is not as predictable as that of a fossil fuel burning power plant, where you have the option of using however much fuel you want, at any given time.
Can you use a 24VDC-100RPM motor as wind generator?
All DC Motors can generate electricity according to their size & input volt. 24 volt DC Motor is best for generate electricity. Even you can generate up to 24 volt AC. The big size of Motor is also depends to generate more ampere (current). Remember 24 volt DC Motor which have less RPM without gear is better & efficient for generate electricity than having the more RPM (Round Per Minute). So try it & generate electricity.

What do windmills generate?
They generate electricity produced by wind.
How windmills conserve natural resource?
windmills are generated by windand are used to generate electricity. Nowadays, electricity are generated by dams which are very harmful for the natural resources .
Do windmills make wind?
No, windmills do not make wind. Windmills use the wind to generate energy by converting the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical power that can be used to grind grain or generate electricity.
What energy is used in windmills?
Windmills use wind energy to generate electricity. The kinetic energy from the movement of the wind spins the turbine blades, which then turn a generator to produce electricity.
How will wind be used in 2138?
energy in the form of electricity is generate using windmills for this propose wind farms have been established.
How do windmills distribute electricity to the community?
Windmills generate electricity on the spot. This electricity is then cabled into the closest grid.
Why does a windmill mean freedom?
Windmills can be used to pump water from a local river to the village where people live. Windmills can be used to generate electricity so people can see at night or keep warm in winter.
What are windmills used for?
windmills are there to help save energy and renew electricity.
A large number of windmills placed in one area to generate electricity?
Wind Farm
What are the uses of windmills?
Windmills in Holland were put to use pumping water from land they reclaimed from the sea, they are also used to grind grains to make flour etc. Modern day wind turbines are used to generate electricity.
What is one advantage of using windmills to generate electricity?
They do not produce waste products that cause pollution.
Does a windmills uses potential or kinetic engery?
Windmills use kinetic energy from the moving air to generate electricity. The wind turns the blades of the windmill, which in turn spin a generator to produce electricity. Potential energy is not directly used in this process.
