Where can we install wind turbines?

State whether the following statements are true of false with proper explanation: The machine which converts the potential energy of wind to electrical energy is called wind-turbine.

Answer the following as shown in diagram What is a wind turbine?

Where do we find fossils ?

Depending on which factor, wind turbines are installed?

State whether the following statements are true or false and correct the false statement: In wind turbine of specific capacity is selected depending on altitude.

Give scientific reasons The construction of turbine is different for different types of power plants.

Read the paragraph and answer the questions given below: Renewable energy is energy produced from sources that do not deplete or can be replensied within a human's life time. The most common examples include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydroelectric power. This is in contrast to non-renewable energy is derived directly or indirectly from the sun. Sunlight can be captured directly using solar technologies. The sun's heat drives winds, whose energy is captured with turbines. Plants also rely on the sun to grow and their stored energy can be utilized for bioenergy. Not all renewable energy sources rely on the sun. For examples, geothermal energy utilizes the Earth's internal heat, tidal energy relies on the gravitational pull of the moon, and hydroelectric power relies on the flow of water. Which type of energy do we mostly use in India?
