The energy of the wind is used to rotate the blades of a windmill. This is an example of converting:
AKE to Mechanical Energy
BPE to Mechanical Energy
CChemical to Mechanical Energy
DSolar to Mechanical Energy
✓ Correct Answer: A — KE to Mechanical Energy
Wind (moving air) has kinetic energy which is converted into the mechanical energy of the rotating blades.
