What type of energy is used to run most refrigerators?
Electrical- there are a few that run on heat energy from gas or kerosene.
Can an electric motor run a generator to power itself if the motor has a small gear and the generator has a big gear?
I think it can work with a certain type of generator and an electric motor like one that uses 300w/h The idea is to run a generator that can produce more electricity than needed to run the motor that is powering it.
What machine converts kinetic energy to electricity?
-- Hand-crank generator -- Hydroelectric generator -- Windmill generator -- Front-wheel generator on a bicycle -- Car generator, run by a belt from a wheel on the crank-shaft -- Any turbine generator, i.e. turned by a shaft which is forced to turn by anything else
What type of energy is used in a dishwasher?
Electricity to run the dishwasher. That electricity can be generated by coal, solar, gas, or hydro power.
What type of energy does a battery use?
What comes out is electrical energy, while what is in the battery is chemical energy.
Is generator used in nuclear or solar energy?
Generators are nearly always used for nuclear power, and sometimes used for solar power. In nuclear power plants, the reactor makes steam to run a generator. Much of solar produced electricity does not use a generator, but produces power through a photovoltaic effect. Concentrated solar can be used to make steam to run a generator.
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

Electrical- there are a few that run on heat energy from gas or kerosene.
How generator run?
By help of prime mover which supplies the mechanical energy to the shaft of generator(in case of dc generators).
Will it damage a television to run it using a generator?
Yes, because the energy generated by a generator is "dirty" energy. Stick a surge protector on it and you should be good to go.
How many hours will a propane generator run after the power goes out?
The factors that determine how long a propane generator can run are the size of the propane tank, the size of the generator, the brand of generator, and what is being used under the generator's power.
What is waste to energy conversion?
Waste to Energy Conversion is when you take waste (the combustible parts of household garbage, for example, that cannot be otherwise recycled) and burn it to run an electricity generator. Then you have used waste to make energy.
The function of generator on board ship?
The generator on a ship is used to create power to run many things. On large ships like a cruise ship, the generators allow power to everything from televisions to the casino machines.
What is the problem with using an electric motor to run a generator stepped up with transformers that is used to run the motor and give electricity for other uses?
It's all to do with the conservation of energy. The output power of the transformer cannot be greater than the input power from the motor used to drive your generator! In fact, it will be significantly lower than the power of your first motor due to the efficiency of the motor, of the generator being driven by that motor, and of the transformer. So if you then try to run the original motor from the output of your transformer, the energy-losses will simply accumulate, and the motor will not be able to run!
Can an electric motor run a generator to power itself if the motor has a small gear and the generator has a big gear?
I think it can work with a certain type of generator and an electric motor like one that uses 300w/h The idea is to run a generator that can produce more electricity than needed to run the motor that is powering it.
Is an AC generator can use AC motor and vice verso?
Are you planning to build a perpetual motion machine in which the power generated by an AC generator is used to run an AC motor which is used to run the same AC generator which provides it with power? Because that won't work. Yes, you can use a motor to generate electricity, and you can use electricity to run a motor, but the process is not 100% efficient and if you try to make it a closed loop, it will run down fairly quickly. So, what do we actually do? We use fuel to run an AC generator, or we use waterfalls or wind, or some other energy source, and then we use the power to run our motor.
