Question:  

In electric power plants, turbines are actually connected to generators which are composed of magnets and coils. How are turbines used to produce electricity?

Answer:

Turbines are attached to generators with large magnets and conductors. Turbines are revolved either mechanically or by using a steam from boiling water which is heated by the fuel source. Turbines create a changing magnetic field inside the generator which in turn produces electricity.

Explanation:

Basically, a wind turbine turns energy in the wind into electricity using the aerodynamic force created by the rotor blades that work similarly to an airplane wing or helicopter rotor blade. As the wind flows across the blade, the air pressure on one side of the blade reduces. The change in air pressure across the two sides of the blade creates both lift and drag. The force of the lift is greater than the drag and this causes the rotor to spin. The rotor is attached to the generator, either directly when it operates the turbine directly or through a shaft and a series of gears that accelerate the rotation and enable a physically smaller generator. This conversion of aerodynamic force to rotation of a generator creates electricity.

What Is Marriage? What Is Vocation?

What is marriage? what is vocation?   MARRIAGE A widely accepted definition of marriage is the following: a formal union and legal contract between two individuals that unites their lives legally, economically, and emotionally. The ceremony is usually called a wedding.  In Godly perception, marriage is more than a ceremony. It is a permanent relationship between a man and a woman . Genesis 2:24 accounts that "at the beginning of creation God made them male and female. On this explanation, a man will leave his father and mother, and the two will be one flesh'.   Roles in Marriage According to Ephesians 5:23 "A husband is head of his wife." For a family to function well, somebody has to make final decisions on matters. The Bible assigns accountability to the husband.   According to 1 Peter 3:1   "Wives, be in submission to your  husbands." God created the woman, to become a man's counterpart . To enable the woman to accomplish her role, God ga

"A decorative stone fell off the fence. Considering the presence of air, how does the kinetic energy (K) of the stone just before striking the ground compare to its potential energy (U) on the fence? a. K is equal to U. b. K is greater than U. c. K is less than U. d. It is impossible to tell."   Answer: b. Kinetic Energy is greater than Potential Energy. Just before the decorative stone hits the ground, it will have a greater kinetic energy than its potential energy. Review: Before anything else, we need to understand the concepts of kinetic energy and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the work that an object needs to have in order for it to be in action or to accelerate. Basically, kinetic energy is the object's energy triggered by its motion in three dimensional space. The energy is collected through its acceleration and secures its magnitude until a change of speed happens. The kinetic energy of an object will be set to zero once it is put into rest;
