    Answer these questions in your journal and cite your sources. 

    1. What places in the world use the most wind energy? 

    2. How much does it cost to produce energy through each of the methods above? Both initially and long term.

    3.  What are the start and stall speeds of most wind turbines?  Why are they needed?]]>     2017-09-08 17:47:16 UTC https://padlet.com/alliermarlin/mssa7stem/wish/185980478     Wind with Miller worksheet alliermarlin https://padlet.com/alliermarlin/mssa7stem/wish/189442005 2017-09-20 17:13:44 UTC https://padlet.com/alliermarlin/mssa7stem/wish/189442005 9/22 Wind Turbine Extra alliermarlin https://padlet.com/alliermarlin/mssa7stem/wish/189828171 Work through these sites:

There are plenty of cool/interesting/fun things to do, but if you need something else, you can go to Khan Academy for coding, code.org or codecademy.com. Do not get on any website/game that is not listed on this padlet. We will begin testing our wind turbines on Monday.]]> 2017-09-22 03:58:01 UTC https://padlet.com/alliermarlin/mssa7stem/wish/189990383 Wind Turbine Testing Chart alliermarlin https://padlet.com/alliermarlin/mssa7stem/wish/194405542 I tried my best to draw your blade shapes :) If there are any corrections or additions you need to make to your group's info, please comment on this post so your classmates can fill in their chart completely.
