America's giant electric power generating industry developed largely as a result of the inventions of?
Thomas Edison
What is the difference between power consumption and power dissipation?
A: POWER consumption is total power usage power dissipation is wasted power in the form of heat, IR drop and so on.
How many megawatts of power is Egypt generating?
Why would you want to know this?I dont know ask your mom or someone
Which method of generating electrical energy results in electricity that is relatively easily distributed to where it is needed when it is needed?
using coal-fired power plants
What is power transmission?
Power transmission is the movement of energy from its place of generation to a location where it is applied to performing useful work.
What are electromagnets used to record information on?
Electromagnets...electromagnets are magnets attract, or pull, some kinds of metal objects. Stronger magnets exert a greater pull on the objects they attract. Sometimes it would be useful if you could turn off a magnet when you did not want it to attract objects. That is what an electromagnet can do. Some electromagnets .in power plants and factories electromagnets are very large. You can make a small, simple electromagnet in school or at home.
What is a characteristic of electromagnets that makes them useful in simple tools?
they are magnetic
How electromagnets are useful when data is transferred onto a credit card?
Electromagnets are useful when data is transferred onto a credit card because they store the confidential, security information within the magnetic stripe.
How an electromagnet is useful in a different ways?
All electric motors are electromagnets.
What makes electromagnets useful?
Electromagnets are useful because some machines need magnets that can stop being magnetic. In junkyards, some machines need to pick up metallic objects, so they need magnets that can turn on and off, which is where a electromagnet becomes useful.
Electromagnets are generally weaker than permanent magnets?
Depends on the size. One good example of a powerful electromagnet is the one used to lift cars at junk yards. Permanent magnets are not used for that due to the sheer power needed to lift cars. Also, electromagnets can be turned ON and OFF making them useful in picking up and then dropping the junk cars as needed. Another big example of electromagnets are the ones used on power generators to generate electric power.
How are electromagnets used to make electric power?
Electromagnets are used to make electric power because magnets are a type of electricity,and electro is at the front.
When was Toronto Power Generating Station created?
Toronto Power Generating Station was created in 1913.
Why are electromagnets useful in motors?
Electromagnets are sometimes more useful because they can be turned on and off at will. This feature allows them to do things that other permanent magnets cannot do. High speed mag-lev trains use this ability to their advantage to propel themselves down the rails.
What is a power plant?
A power station (also referred to as a generating station, power plant, powerhouse or generating plant) is an industrial facility for the generation of electric power.
Why do floating globes require power if they are magnetic?
because they use electromagnets whitch use power
A magnet is useful in generating electricity because a magnetic force moves?
electrons
