Our Design
It worked. Name:THE green one!

Our Experiment
REPLACE WITH DESCRIPTION OF YOUR EXPERIMENT

Results
EDIT WITH YOUR VALUES
Reading 1 Current [ ] mA
Reading 2 Current [ ] mA
Reading 3 Current [ ] mA
Reading 4 Current [ ] mA
Average Current = [I ] mA
Windspeed at fan = [6.6] ms-1
Resistance = [100 ] Ohms
Power = I * I * R (remember to convert mA to A) 5,73mW

So with a windspeed of [s ] our turbine generates an average current of [I ] mA delivering [P ] (convert W to mW) mW per second so in 10 minutes it could generate [P * 600 ] mW.

If playing music on an iPod classic consumes about 77mW per second, 10 minutes of turbine time (assuming 100% energy transfer efficiency) can power [ ? ] seconds of playback time, enough to listen to about [ ? ] 3 minute songs.

Thoughts
What kind of stuff do you make? (to scientist)
