What else can I help you with?
A power stations output is 200mw and 25000volts assuming they only had 1 generator what would the current be flowing out of the wires of the power station?
Current is measured in Amps, with Ohms law we know Amps are equal to Watts divided by Volts or A=W/V in this case the formula would be: 200,000,000/25000= 8000 Amps
What is the machine in a power station that changes kinetic energy into electrical energy?
The machine in a power station that changes kinetic energy into electrical energy is called a generator. Generators work by rotating coils of wire within a magnetic field to produce an electric current. This current is then converted into electrical energy that can be distributed for use.
What energy transfer takes place in the generator of a power station?
In the generator of a power station, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy. This is done through the process of electromagnetic induction, where the rotation of coils within a magnetic field generates an electrical current.
What happens in the turbines in a power station?
In a power station, the turbines are responsible for converting the kinetic energy from steam or flowing water into mechanical energy, which then drives a generator to produce electricity. As the turbines spin, they generate rotational motion that is used to generate electricity effectively.
What energy transfers generate electricity in a water dam power station?
It is the transfer of mechanical/physical energy to electrical energy. The flowing water rotates a turbine which is attached to a generator and in turn creates an AC field.
How does a coal powered power station produce alternating current?
A coal-powered power station generates electricity by burning coal to produce steam, which drives a turbine connected to a generator. As the turbine spins, it rotates the generator's rotor within a magnetic field, inducing an alternating current (AC) due to electromagnetic induction. The generator's design allows for the production of AC by converting the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy, which can then be transmitted through power lines to homes and businesses.
When you are creating a generator what determines how much current is generated?
You don't generate current. You generate voltage, and the amount of current that leaves the generator is determined by the devices that are designed to run with that voltage, and draw their operating energy from your generator. You choose the size of the materials used to construct your generator based on the maximum amount of current you expect it to be asked to deliver by its users. But the actual current at any moment will depend on how many people are using it for their supply, and what kind of appliances they're operating. If nobody is using power from your generator, or the output cables are disconnected from it, then you can run it all you want and the current will be zero. Before you decide on the final design and go out for bids to construct your generating station, you might like to review the topics of voltage, current, power, and energy, and get them straight in your mind.
What are examples of mechanical to electrical energy?
A steam turbine/generator in a power station, a small gasoline powered generator, or a 12v alternator in your car driven by the engine.
What is needed to generate AC electricity?
An AC generator (Alternator). A rotor is turned into a magnet by what is known as 'excitation' current. The rotor then induces AC current in the stator windings as it is rotated within it. This is AC, due to the fact that the rotor has a north and south pole, which alternately induces current in the stator windings. The exitation current is provided to the rotor via slip rings. Controlling this excitation current will also control the output power by suitable control circuitry. This is the same principle, whether it is a small domestic generator, a power station, a wind turbine, or a car alternator.
Which part of a power station is like a dynamo in your bicycle?
The generator
What are some screen name generator websites?
Surprisingly there's quite a few screen name generator websites such as Fantasy Name generator, Gangsta Name, Generator Land, Name Station, and SpinXO to name a few.
How can you make a small working model of a hydro electric power station?
you need to do you have a small turbine and generator by the axis of the movement of turbine generator to you.
