schöne animation!

I have a question of a curious nature. Say you have an electrical generator that keeps running and running, producing an electrical current continuously. Where do the Electrons come from? Where do the electrons keep coming from that are produced by the Generator? Do they come from the windings of the generator, and if so, wouldn't the generator soon run out of electrons? If not, then where are they coming from? Any information would be appreciated, I am quite curious about this.

[Jdonovanford]

@BABarracus4 Yeah, but could you explain how this flow works? If an electron jumps into the next atom in the chain, and so successively, and it is not a circuit, how can the current keep on going if the first atom has one electron less?

[itsbigdan]

is this on 3ds software they used or something else?

[BABarracus4]

@Jdonovanford there is free enegy all around but its easier to access with metal compaired to a stable rock that tend to form stable bonds that hold electrons in place. If the sea of elecrons did not work the way it did the electronic age would not be impossible

[BABarracus4]

@Jdonovanford wind generator is a circut. electricity is just many electron formed together. when you have a peice of metal its full of electrons and what make metal conductive and the electrons are able to move freely, like water does in the ocean. Wind turbine do not create electricity what it does is its make the elctrons flow in a current with in the circut by the use of magnitisim. when we use electrons we dont really loose them they just find an atom that needs an electron

I would like to contact the creator of this excellent video to ask permission to use part of it in an online educational resource. How do I contact them?

[Incrue]

@Jdonovanford they are already here, on the wires, on everything, they just don't move making a current.

How does the turbine adjust itself to changes in wind direction? Does the turbine adjust itself so it is facing the right way? Also, how is the pitch of the wings determined? I know its in response to wind speed, but is that automated as well?

We need to keep Earth Clean and Fresh.  Its all we got. When there are winds far out in the Oceans, there can be electricity for us to use.
