a standard combustion engine has rather negative effects on the environment today because of overuse of the combustion engine causes pulution in the earths atmosphere and causes the ozone layer to deplete. The new hybrid engines make a mazimum of 1/2 of the poulition of a regular combution engine because the hybrid engine runs off of the gasoline 4 cyl. combustion engine but charges the battery for the electric engine also. the electric engine powers the main accelleration of the car but eventully runs out of charge and automatically swithces over to the combutsion engine to power the car and charge the battery.

List five whats engines can be classified?

Engines can be classified into five main categories: internal combustion engines, which burn fuel to create power; external combustion engines, where fuel is burned outside the engine, such as steam engines; electric engines, which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy; hybrid engines, combining internal combustion and electric power sources; and rocket engines, designed for propulsion in space by expelling mass at high velocity. Each type serves different applications and operates on distinct principles.

How do motors on hydrogen cars differ from combustion or hybrid engines?

Like a gas combustion engine, a hydrogen engine relies on the combustion process - in this case, combustion that results when hydrogen is combined with oxygen. Fuel cells in a hydrogen-powered car then convert this mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Hybrid cars get better gas mileage than cars with standard engines?

Sometimes Hybrid cars combine an internal combustion engine with a battery system to improve efficiency. In many cars, this translates into improved fuel economy, but some hybrids use those savings for added power. If you're shopping for a hybrid, check the fuel economy rating!
