$A$ wind-powered generator converts wind energy into electrical energy. Assume that the generator converts a fixed fraction of the wind energy intercepted by its blades into electrical energy. For wind speed $v$,the electrical power output will be most likely proportional to

  • A
    $v^4$
  • B
    $v^2$
  • C
    $v$
  • D
    $v^3$
