Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Wind is considered to be kinetic energy. As the kinetic energy of the wind hits the fans of the wind turbine it causes the fans to spin. This then causes the blades to spin a rotor which is connected to the main shaft of the turbine itself. This rotor spins and generates electricity. Therefore, the kinetic energy that was initially introduced into the system goes through a process and gets converted into electrical energy which we can use.
