windmill- breanna gordon

Calculations
39.37x9.82x11.03=398.21/16.6 = 23.99
* energy+398.21 joules
*power=23.99 watts

1. Airplanes and windmills both use air pressure to fly, without the pressure they would not be able to fly at all. The pressure helps hold the airplanes be held up in the air and fly. The air pressure makes the turbine spin to make energy.

2. If you do not twist the rotor blades at an angle they will not spin as well as they could compared to if they were straight.

3. The rotors on a windmill are a lot like the sail on a sail boat because they both are used to catch wind.

4. One of our rotors did not work at all because it was not sturdy enough, our other rotor was more sturdy and it worked.

5. The windmill that had the most output used rulers and was more straight and sturdy than others.

6. There wasnt really to many limitations it depended on how creative you were and how hard you pushed yourself.
