What changes electric energy into motion?
An electric motor
An electric motor converts electrical energy to potential energy?
They don't. An electric motor is designed to convert electrical energy to kinetic energy, not the other way round. A device that converts kinetic energy to electrical energy is called a generator or a dynamo. Sometimes the same device can do both things (convert in both directions), but since the device is especially optimized for one function, it may not be very good at the other one.
What is a device that uses electricity to work?
That sounds like an electric motor.That sounds like an electric motor.That sounds like an electric motor.That sounds like an electric motor.
When did Michael Faraday come up with the electric motor?
The Electric motor was invented in 1821 by Michael Faraday.
What size hydraulic motor is needed to be equal to a 3 hp electric motor?
1 HP electric motor = 1.5 HP hydraulic motor so for a 3 HP electric motor you would need a 4.5 HP hydraulic motor. Also for your information a 1 HP hydraulic motor = 1 2/3 HP gasoline engine.
What is the function of an electric motor in terms of electric power and motor?
The electric motor changes electric energy into mechanical energy.
the function of an electric motor is to chage?
chemical energy
What is the function of armature winding?
The winding function of an electric motor is a description of how the number of conductors in the windings around the motor changes with position.
What are the parts and function of electric motor?
Electrical energy to Mechanical energy
Function of AC motor?
To convert ac electric power into mechanical power.
What is the purpose of a motor controller?
A motor controller is a device that controls an electric motor. Most motor controllers require a manual and automatic function, forward and reverse rotation, and speed control.
What makes an electric motor lock up?
One reason an electric motor might lock up is if the bearings seize or freeze (not meaning "freeze" from cold weather but "freeze" as in "lock up" and be unable to function).
What changes electric energy into motion?
An electric motor
Which conversion does an electric motor make?
electric energy to mechanical energy
What is the speed of a 3kW electric motor?
The speed of motion generated by a motor is not a function of its nominal power. The nominal power, 3kW in this example, is an indicator for the electric power consumed, and for the force available in the direction of motion. The speed of a motor is determined by its construction, and can cover an extremely wide range regardless of its power.
What is the function of a motor?
Motor functions are the movements of the muscles. Some are controlled by the brain and some are automatic (heart, digestive system). There are gross motor movements such as walking and fine motor movements such as you would use while picking a tiny piece of lint from a fabric.
Why it is that mechanical energy is the output of an electric motor?
Because that is the purpose on an electric motor.
