1. What is Energy?
Wind farms in Washington have a capacity of 3075 Megawatts (mega means million remember so this is 3075000000 watts). This means if they were all operating at the same time this is how many Joules per second they would produce. a) Assume all wind farms in Washington are operating at capacity. How much energy in Kwh is produced in one hour? b) Now it is not windy all the time, so suppose only 60% of the wind farms are operating. How much energy is produced in a 7 day week by these wind farms c) An average home uses about 250 KWh for a 7 day week. How many homes can be operated by the wind farms in part b
