Explain step by step on how electricity is generated using wind?
Wind motion is converted to propellor motion. Propellor motion is turned into shaft motion. Shaft motion is geared down to optimal generator rotational speed (if not handled by propellor trim). Generator makes electrical power. Inverter synchronizes with power grid, and pushes electrical power into the grid.
What mechanial device produces reciprocting motiion form rotary motion?
Two types of system I can think of:A cam mounted on a rotating shaft can push against a rod. If the rod is held against the cam by a spring then the system is capable of reciprocating action.A crank: The crank attached to the pedals on a bicycle is an example, although it converts reciprocating motion to rotary motion.
How do you change electrical energy to kinetic energy?
Generally this is done via an electric motor, which is a shaft suspended (centered, free to rotate on a bearing or slide on a linear path) within a coil of wire. When current is passed through the wire coil, a magnetic field is produced, which acts on the motor shaft, inclining it to rotate or slide, depending on setup. This force is proportional to to the current in the coil, and the resulting motion of the shaft can be observed as having kinetic energy.
How does electricity produce motion?
In an electric motor electricity is used to create a moving magnetic field which forces the shaft of the motor turn. For more details see the 'how stuff works' web site for electric motors.
What is the function of the simple screw machine?
A screw is a shaft with some type of helical groove or thread formed on its surface. The threads usually engage with mating threads on the inside of a hole in some type of appliance that the screw runs through, such as a nut. When the shaft of the screw is turned relative to the stationary threads, the screw moves along its axis. It is one of the six classical simple machines. A screw can convert a rotational force (torque) to a linear force and vice versa. The screw's pitch, the separation between adjacent threads, determines the mechanical advantage of the machine. More threading increases the mechanical advantage. A rough comparison of mechanical advantage can be done by dividing the circumference of the shaft by the distance between the threads.Its main uses are as a threaded fastener to hold objects together, and as a simple machine used to translate torque into linear force. It can also be defined mechanically as an inclined plane wrapped around a shaft.
Why do you use shaft collars?
so that the relative motion of the shaft becomes completely constrained.
Could you make a generator by mounting permanent magnets on a rotating shaft and keeping the coil stationary?
Yes, only relative motion between the coil and the magnetic field is important.
Reciprocating motion in an appliance is obtained from a rotating motor shaft with the aid of?
reciprocating motion in an appliance is obtained from a rotating motor shaft with the aid of
What transfers motion to generator?
A rotating shaft
What is the difference between shaft and rod?
ANY MACHINED BAR CAN BE CALLED AS ROD, IT TRANSFERRS MOTION FROM ONE LINK TO ANOTHER..................IF THE SUPPLIED MOTION IS OF TORSIONAL TYPE(WHICH TENDS TO ROTATE THE LINK ON ITS OWN AXIS) THE SAME ROD IS CALLED A SHAFT... RANA PRAKASH ranaprakash2873@gmail.com
What are the different parts of an engine and their functions?
crank shaft helps in to and fro motion while piston do up and down motion also called reciprocating motion the distance between the piston and cylinder is called clearance volume which is 0.003. the fly wheel store the power

What does a wheel bearing do?
Carries the weight of the wheel and allow it to spin without wearing the spindle or shaft A bearing is a device to permit constrained relative motion between two parts, typically rotation or linear movement. Bearings may be classified broadly according to the motions they allow and according to their principle of operation as well as by the directions of applied loads they can handle.
What is the purpose of a output shaft?
The Purpose of an output shaft is to Transmit Motion From A power source to other shafts With the Help of Helical Or spur Gear arrangement.
What is an oil thrower?
It is a metal disk or ring that is fitted around a spinning shaft in an engine or gearbox. It is designed to prevent oil from creeping along the shaft which prevents oil loss from the machine.
What converts reciprocating motion into rotary motion in an engine?
The crankshaft and connecting rod (or piston rod).
Why put a harmonic balance on a drive shaft?
Hi the harmonic balance weight prevents the shaft from flexing into an elliptical rotational pattern. staying straight and true and rotating within its axis is the name of the game in drive shaft performance. hope this helps
