Overview of device Fan catches wind Spins the generator magnets Produces electricity by inducing a
current on the wire due to polarity change

Summary of Aspects
Mechanical Aspects Windmill catches wind energy with blades KE is transferred to magnets
Electrical Aspects Magnetism transfers the rotational KE to electrical KE
