Wind Power
The power P of a wind-stream, crossing an area A with velocity v is given by
Failed to parse (PNG conversion failed; check for correct installation of latex and dvipng (or dvips + gs + convert)): P=\frac{1}{2}\rho A v^3
It varies proportional to air density Failed to parse (PNG conversion failed; check for correct installation of latex and dvipng (or dvips + gs + convert)): \rho
, to the crossed area A and to the cube of the wind velocity v.
