What is a device that converts other forms of energy into electrical energy?
a generator
What is a is a device that converts various forms of energy into electricity?
Motor Generator
What is cogeneration?
cogeneration- technology of producing two or more forms of energy from a single energy generator.
What energy does a generator use?
Generator converts mechanical to electrical energy. It is used to produce electricity.
Which type of energy does a gas generator use?
mechanical energy
How does a generator turn energy in to power?
The electric generator converts mechanical rotation (hence, the term mechanical energy) into electrical energy (electricity) with the help of magnetism in the generator (magnetic forces). Electric power is the term use in expressing the rate of energy per time (hence kilowatt = kilojoule per second).In a complex electric power system, this electrical energy is converted back into mechanical energy (such as elevator in a building, refrigerator at home) and other forms of energy that are being use by mankind in its quest for development
In what ways is mechanical energy used to generate other forms of energy?
That really depends on the type of energy generated. One common method is to use a generator to generate electricity; this can then easily be transported to different places, and later convert to other types of energy.
Are there any more environmentally friendly forms of generator power?
Yes there are so many environmentally friendly forms of generator power, listed are some examples: Solar power generator, windmills and many more. You can save more than other energy sources.
How is motion energy converted?
kinetic energy can be converted into other forms of energy... And vise vers.For example, kinetic energy can be converted into electrical energy by a generator or into thermal energy by the brakes on a car.
How are a solar cell and a generator alike?
They're alike in that they both convert other forms of energy into electrical energy. A solar cell converts radiant energy from the sun into electrical current. A generator converts mechanical energy -- which may come from a wide variety of sources -- into electricity.
What device converts mechanical energy to light energy?
you can use generator which covert mecahnical energy to electric energy .......
How can I use the heat in the air to run a generator?
we should use highly heat energy absorbing bodies like black bodies to absorb the heat energy...this energy is provided to water and water will be converted into steam which will run the generator
