What is the power factor of an induction motor?

Induction motor comprised inductor as the most part in it and an inductor has the characteristic to oppose the change of current, i.e., it has lagging power factor as current lags behind the voltage. Hence, an induction motor works on lagging power factor.


How can a capacitor works as a power saver?

A capacitor does not and cannot work as a 'power saver' or, more-accurately, 'energy saver'.However, a capacitor can be used to reduce the power factor of a load. Reducing power factor, though, has absolutely no effect whatsoever on the amount of energy consumed by that load and will not reduce the energy bill for a residential consumer such as you or me.What reducing power factor does is to reduce the load current which, in turn, will reduce the amount of copper that must be provided by the utility company, in terms of its cables and transformers. So power factor 'improvement' can save the utility company money, by allowing it to use smaller cables and transformers to supply any given load.


What is a transformer and what principle is used in transformer?

A transformer is a static device which converts electrical energy from one circuit to another circuit without changing frequency, power, power factor. It works on the principle of faradays laws of electro magnetic induction.

How does an automatic transmission work?

An automatic transmission uses a series of planetary gears to switch between high-power, low-speed modes and high-speed, low-power modes. The related link to How Stuff Works! provides more detail.


What does mean power?

In an AC circuit the power is often less than the voltage times the current, and the power factor describes how much less. A resistive load has a power factor of 1 but an induction motor might have a power factor of 0.7 so the power is equal to the volts times the amps times 0.7. Power companies do not like a poor power factor because it places an undue load on the power system that the companies receive no revenue for, because consumers are normally billed for the true energy consumed. High-power users like factories may be billed extra if they present a poor power factor, which might induce them to improve the power factor.

Can an Xbox360 controller be used on an Xbox?

The Xbox 360 controller will not work on an original xbox console. Similarly, an original xbox controller will not work with the xbox 360. Each controller only works with its respective console. Xbox 360 Controller --> Xbox 360 Xbox controller --> Xbox
