Hi, need to submit a 1500 words paper on the topic How to use a Gold in Wind Turbines. Grain grinding being very much straightforward was the documented use of windmills. This design further developed into a wind turbine, a device that covers kinetic energy derived from the wind into mechanical energy, which looks much like the opposite of a fan. A wind turbine uses wind to make electricity unlike a fan, which uses electricity to make wind. This device led to the generation of a wide range of machinery that is, wind generators, wind chargers, etc.

There are two types of wind turbines, namely. horizontal-axis variety and the vertical-axis design. The only difference is the direction the turbine faces. Horizontal – axis design looks much like the olden farm windmills that were used to pump water while vertical – axis design looks like the eggbeater style Darrieus model. Though the purpose of the two designs is similar, most modern wind turbines use the horizontal axis design due to its efficiency in application.

The main parts of a basic wind turbine are the rotor, a drive train, which includes a generator and a gearbox, the tail, the tower. In addition, a wind turbine will include electrical cables, ground support equipment, interconnection equipment, and controls.

This portion collects energy from the wind. It usually consists of two or more metal, wooden, or glass fiber blades, which rotate at an axis either vertical or horizontal. The speed of the wind and the shape of the blades determine the speed at which the rotor spins. The rotor is attached to the shaft via the hub. The blade design operates on the principle of drag or lift. Wind turbines made of drag design rotors are characterized by slow rotational speeds and high torque capabilities while lift design blades are characterized by high rotational speeds and are well suited for electricity generation.

Write a 6 pages paper on the achievement desire by richard rodriguez. In his essay, Rodriguez admits that he despised his parents on educational grounds. Even so, the cultural separation, brought about through education, dawns to him later on while he was undertaking his studies in graduate school. Education had distanced him from his family life.

Inability to balance between personal life ambition and the school can be tragic. As Hoggart puts it, a scholarship kind presents a “friction point of two cultures” (Rodriguez 540). Rodriguez comes from a family background consisting of barely educated middle-class parents and enrolling into the school, as a scholarship student, makes up an entry in a novel environment. He admits to having forgotten where he came from (598). He is too ambitious in achieving academic success that he distances himself from his ‘helpless’ family. The inability to balance his school life, ambition and family life caused him guilt and shame. For Rodriguez, he chose school over his family.

Personally, I can relate to Rodriguez circumstances, given the situational similarities thereof. As Latino Puerto Rican, I happen to come from a low-class family, just like Rodriguez. When I awarded a scholarship for my studies, with the difficulty in affording school, I was filled with anxiety of success since this was an exceptional chance at hand. To achieve this, I needed support and help from my parents. However, when the parents fail to keep up with the standards of support one requires, other options are sought. Intrinsically, the teachers are the next most feasible replacement for the parents in regards to support. I did what Rodriguez refers to as “a transfer of allegiance that previously given to the parents, to the new figure of authority, the teacher” (600). The new environment of school got me exposed to peer pressure, from other students from high-class families and bullying due to the fact that I was on scholarship. The situation rendered me unable to play a sport. rather I concentrated on achieving academic success.
