Consider a power line that is suspended between two telephone poles. As the wind comes up power line just moves around in seemingly random shapes but for certain wind speeds the power line seems to “hold its shape”, vibrating very prolifically and in certain patters. Please explain.

Aptil 20 (Bloomberg) — Bloomberg’s Ryan Chilcote reports from the British coast on energy company investigations into a possible design fault that may be causing offshore wind turbines to shift on the seabed.

This question is not as stupid as it sounds: it relates to a law I half-remember in Physics, about the preservation of Energy.

So we can use wind turbines to generation Energy, ie Wind Power. The Earth has many more powerful elements … Could these be harvested to create Power?

also have a 1kw 164v 7.2 amps 3000rpm dc motor starting to learn about wind power looking for info.

is there enough areas in the U.S. to build them?
do they harm the human enviroment?
do they cause pollution, via nuclear waste?
how are the resource availabilty?

Maybe cloth blades, or retractable in high winds, or aquatics?
Floating towers is what I’m talking about
Bob, I want tech stuff, not numbers.

needs to be wide open fields
and have to be windy!
has to be wide open plains
has to be windy
excluding Fred Flintstone!!
