Best Answer

a rotor is the "wings" on a wind turbine that is spun by the wind and will spin magnets over coils of wire to create an electrical current using the magnetic field. thus creating an alternative "green" energy.

Why will the rotor of a wound-rotor motor not turn if the rotor circuit is left open with no resistance connected to it?

Because there is no current flowing in the rotor, and thus there is no magnetic field in the rotor, and thus there is no torque between the rotor and the field.

How do you resurface a rotor?

The rotor will have to be removed from the car. It can be resurfaced by mounting it on a special machine that slowly removes metal from the rotor until the rotor is smooth.

How does a brake rotor function?

The brake rotor functions similar to the breaks on a bicycle. Each brake rotor contains a rotor and a brake pad. When the brake is applied, the brake pads squeeze the rotor, causing the wheels to stop.
