What kind of energy does an electrical drill use?
That would be electricity.
What kind of energy is in electric wires?
hyproelectricity
What kind of circuit allows a current to flow through?
Any complete circuit. ==== An electrical circuit.
How is electricity generated by a generator?
Energy doesn't 'take place'. Until you become more comfortable with it, you should think of it as some kind of fluid, that flows from place to place, and can be stored in several ways for when it's needed. An electric generator is a machine that has a shaft and two terminal connections. It can supply electrical energy through the terminals when you spin the shaft. You just have to find something else that has energy, and skim energy off of that to spin the shaft of the generator. Some possibilities are: -- wind turning a windmill coupled to the shaft -- water falling through vanes on the shaft -- fire boiling water and blowing the steam through vanes on the shaft -- uranium in a nuclear reactor getting hot and boiling water and blowing the steam through vanes on the shaft -- a person pedaling an exercise bike coupled to the shaft -- 400 hamsters running on a treadmill coupled to the shaft. In every case, it takes 'kinetic energy' to spin the shaft, and the generator converts that kinetic energy into electrical energy.
What kind of projects do electrical engineers do?
Engineers are always in search of projects, and finding meaningful projects makes that search worthwhile within the Takeoff Edu Group. Listed below are some projects for electrical engineering ideas for such engineers.
What kind of energy is made when steam comes out of the earth and spins a turbine?
The energy made by the turbine/generator is electrical, but the source of the energy is geothermal
What kind of energy is turbine blades turning?
from mechanical to electrical
What kind of energy are wind turbine generators used to create?
Wind turbine generators are used to convert the kinetic (movement) energy of the wind directly into electrical energy, which is used to power electrical appliances and needs no further conversion.
What kind of device is used to convert moving water to electrical energy?
Hydro-electric turbine
What kind of energy does a television use?
A television uses electrical energy and changes into sound energy.
When you turn on a electric fan electrical energy changes into which kind of energy?
First changes into magnetic energy that leads to mechanical energy along with some heat energy
What is the kind of power produced when energy of flowing water turns a generator turbine?
The generator (or more likely a 3-phase alternator) produces electrical energy.
What are the energy changes in bread toaster?
The thermal energy used to toast the bread changes to chemical energy
What kind of energy does a wind turbine convert?
kinetic energy
What stores what kind of energy and changes it into electrical energy?
My best guest would be Solar Energy. Solar panels collect sunlight and turn it into electricity.
Lightning is form of what kind of energy?
Electrical energy.
What converts mechanical energy into electrical energy?
Motors convert electrical energy into mechaincal energy through Faraday's law:0 = dB/dt + Del x Ev. The electrical input causes the motors magnetic field to rotate and the rotor of the motor follows outputting mechanical energy.
