Calculating energy generated from a wind turbine with average wind speeds can be misleading because the power output is proportional to the cube of the wind speed. To demonstrate this, calculate the energy produced in 1 day from a GE 1.7-100 wind turbine with a 100 m diameter at a 50% conversion efficiency, with an air density of 1.225 kg/m3 and wind speeds of: [4 pts]
20 mph all day
30 mph for half the day and 10 mph for the other hal
