In this activity you will learn more about clean energy and how to wire circuits to use motors as generators. We will explore the science behind optimizing wind turbine blades to create wind turbines that can create as much voltage as possible. You will be given a bank of materials to pick from to test and finalize your design. At the end of this this challenge you will measure how much voltage your turbine can produce with a multimeter and hopefully generated more power than your classmates.
