Peptides (from Gr. ÏÎµÏÏÏÏ, digested, derived from ÏÎ­ÏÏÎµÎ¹Î½, to digest) are biologically occurring short chains of amino acid monomers linked by peptide (amide) bonds. The covalent chemical bonds are formed when the carboxyl group of one amino acid reacts with the amino group of another. The shortest peptides are dipeptides, consisting of 2 amino acids joined by a single peptide bond, followed by tripeptides, tetrapeptides, etc.
Wind turbines can convert the energy in the wind into mechanical power that can be used for a variety of activities like pumping water. Wind turbines can also use generators to convert wind energy into electricity.
A turbine is a device for converting the energy in a moving fluid into mechanical rotating energy. There are big turbines at the bottom of dams that convert the energy from pressure and velocity in water into rotating mechanical energy to drive huge generators.he energy in is the kinetic energy from the wind's velocity and air density that flows into the area swept by the turbine blades. It is not possible to convert all of the wind's kinetic energy into mechanical energy. Some energy must remain in the air leaving the turbine.
