Motors come in different forms but mainly internal combustion (gasoline and diesel) and electric. Combustion engines use the chemical energy in the fuel, electric motors use electric energy from a power plant.

Kinetic energy, the energy of motion. Of course, by raising a load or pumping water uphill, the motor could also convert this electrical to gravitational potential energy.

What causes a motor to become hot when running?

What motors do is to convert one type of energy into another type of energy. And as that conversion is never 100% efficient, some of the energy is turned into heat, which heats up the motor.


Do telescopes use energy?

Yes. It takes energy to move them in the correct direction. In home telescopes, this is done by hand (energy from your muscles), in large telescopes they use some kind of motors to do that.


Why use resistor grids in DC motors?

resistor grids were used in DC MOTORS during dynamic braking. in this method of braking a resistance ( variable) is connected across armature winding so as to dissipiate the energy. the energy thus dissipiated is used for braking of motors.
