Wind Turbine

The video discusses wind turbines, machines that convert wind's kinetic energy into mechanical and electrical energy. It explains the physics behind turbine design, focusing on airfoil shapes that maximize lift and minimize drag. The mechanics of energy generation are detailed, including the role of rotors, shafts, and generators. Historical context is provided with Michael Faraday's discovery of electricity and magnetism. The video concludes with the benefits of wind farms, both onshore and offshore, highlighting their environmental advantages over fossil fuels.
