How is a water wheel similar to a turbine in a hydroelectric power plant?
Both have blades or buckets.
What is the difference between a Chevy C and K pickup?
the c series is rear wheel drive and the k series is 4 wheel drive
What is a steam turbine?
It is an engine.A steam turbine is a heat engine that uses the expansion of steam passing through stationary nozzles and blades on a shaft to turn the shaft. The steam can move through the turbine axially (one end of shaft to the other end), radially (shaft to outer casing), or tangentially (around the outer edges of the turbine wheel). In an impulse turbine, the steam is expanded in nozzles and pushes the blades. In a reaction turbine the steam is expanded in the nozzles AND in the blades, the reaction of the expansion of the steam pushes away from the blades spinning the wheel in the process. The expansion of the steam is necessary to increase its velocity through the turbine.
Can you use a car as a backup generator for a house?
creative, and nice. Yes, if you some how rigged it (the wheel) up to a alternator/generator and into a transformer for home supply. you would have to jack the car up, or prop it up somehow, attach a generator by belt or welding, wire the generator to some capacity and then to an output transformer. Any motor can be made into a generator when attached to a power generation source, such as a alternator. DC MOTORS WILL NOT WORK. POLYPHASE INDUCTION MOTORS WILL NOT WORK AS THEY RELY ON TWO INPUT PHASES TO OPERATE AND CONTAIN NO MAGNETS.
In Electromagnetic Induction would a series of magnets moving in one direction-like on a wheel- with a coil of wire on top of the wheel beside the magnets induce current and is it AC or DC?
it is dc

How does cycle pedal Generator produced electricity?
the pedals drive the wheel, the wheel drive an electrical generator.2 possibilities for the wheel to drive the generator:-the wheel does not have a tire: a belt goes in the rim and drive a puley on the shaft of the generator.-the wheel has a tire: there is a drive roller on the shaft of the generator. the drive roller is pressed on the tire.The generator can be of any kind. They are commonly car alternator or permanent magnet dc motor, but you can also drive an alternative current squirel cage generator. Depending on the chosen generator, you have to use an electric circuit appropriate for the generator.
Does a generator have a wheel?
No it doesn't :-)
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 is an example of an object that rotates?
A wheel or the blades of a fan.
How is electrecity generated from water?
Water spins a wheel (think Holland) and the wheel spins a generator. A spinning generator releases energy to its connected load.
Which part of a generator corresponds to a water wheel?
turbine
