What else can I help you with?
Explain why electric motors and generators are opposites?
Electric motors take electric energy and turn it into kinetic energy Generators take mechanical energy and turn it into electric energy
How do electric motors turn things on?
it ture on be u
How do cruise ships move?
Most have a turbine engine simliar to an airplane, that generates electrical power that in turn runs electric motors that turn the propellers.
What happens if you turn off the electric current in the solenoid?
If you turn off the electric current in the solenoid, the solenoid quits pulling its armature.
What is the principle of electric locomotives?
Electric motors turn the wheels, and power is gotten from an external source ... most often by way of overhead wires or a "third" rail.
Most trains are powered by what?
There are two major types of modern locomotives. Electric, and Diesel-Electric. Electric locomotives are very popular in some countries, and likewise for diesel-electric. Electric locomotives take in electricity via an overhead wire or a third rail that carries this electricity which is then in turn used to power electrical motors on the axles of the locomotive to move the train. Diesel-electric is identical, but electricity is not directly supplied. The locomotive is fueled with diesel which powers a large diesel engine that drives a generator that in turn drives electric motors on the axles of the locomotive. Think of it as a hybrid. An on-board generator that powers on-board electric motors.
What are some examples of how electricity can be converted to other forms of energy?
Electricity can be converted into various forms of energy, such as light in light bulbs, heat in electric stoves, mechanical energy in electric motors, and chemical energy in batteries through electrochemical reactions.
Buying Cheap Electric Motors?
If you want to save money on your car, then why not turn it into an electric car? One way to go ahead and do that is to purchase a new motor. There are some motors that are being sold out there that will transform your car into an electric car. You will save a lot of money on gasoline if you decide to go ahead and switch the motor in your car.
How is steam used to power a nuclear submarine?
Steam from the nuclear reactor turns turbines. These turbines either turn the propeller directly or turn generators that produce electricity to power electric motors which turn the propellor.
How do you benefit from electric motors?
Fans. Heating, and cooling doesn't work well without something to push the warmed/cool air throughout your home. My computer doesn't overheat. Food in my microwave turns in circles, which is much more entertaining. Electric motors are used to help manufacture almost everything - from shoes, to food, to cars, to the electricity used to make the motors turn.
Which is more powerful a ship engine or a train engine?
trains diesel engines are far less powerful as they just run an electric generator that powers electric motors. container ships require a much larger engines that turn live (mechanically connected) shafts that turn propellers.
When was the first hybrid car invented and by who?
1898 by Dr. Ferdinand Porsche. The car was driven by electric motors in the wheel hubs and utilized a gasoline engine to turn a generator.
