How does wind energy combined with machines cause a sailboat to move?

marking as brainliest

The wind pushes the sails from behind, causing the boat to move forward.

Wind energy obtained by the machine is converted into kinetic energy as it functions and thus enabling the boat to move.

Together, the forces of drag, from the water, and the pressure from the wind against the sail itself push the craft forward. Angling too sharply into the wind causes the forces on the boat to become unbalanced, and moves the boat sideways in the water.

the molecules move in straight line until they collide with each other or with the walls of the container. collisions are perfectly elastic; when two molecules collide, they change their directions and kinetic energies, but the total kinetic energy is conserved.
