Does gasoline create electricity?

Nothing "creates" energy. The chemical energy in gasoline can be converted to electrical energy by burning the gasoline in an internal combustion engine that's connected to a generator.


What is the source for mechanical motion supplied to a generator called?

The source for mechanical motion supplied to a generator is called a prime mover. This prime mover can be in the form of a steam turbine, gas turbine, water turbine, wind turbine, or internal combustion engine, which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through the generator.


Why does nitrogen and oxygen react in a car engine?

Nitrogen and oxygen can react to form oxides of nitrogen. The reaction can occur whenever a combustion reaction takes place in the presence of nitrogen. It could take place in a car engine because it is where fuel combusts and the temperature within engines can be high. The products formed are NO (nitric oxide) and NO2 (nitrogen dioxide) which are of harm to the environment.


Does nitrous oxide support combustion?

No, nitrous oxide does not support combustion. In fact, it is used as an oxidizer in racing cars to increase the power output of the engine without increasing the amount of fuel used.


For his truck Joel purchases gasoline to which oxygen has not been added. What might be the result?

If gasoline is used without any oxygen added, the combustion process will not occur properly and the engine will not run as intended. Gasoline requires oxygen to ignite and produce energy through combustion. Without oxygen, the gasoline will not burn efficiently and the engine may not start or run at all.

What is the difference between a reciprocating internal combustion engine and compression ignition combustion engine?

Compression ignition is deisel. Otherwise, spark ignition is gasoline.


Which type of engine is classified as internal combustion?

Reciprocating engines (piston engines) are internal combustion engines. Rotary engines ( Wankel engine) is also an internal combustion engine. In general, all types of engines in which the combustion chamber is an integrating part of the engine is considered a internal combustion engine.


What is differences between opposed and radial engines?

An opposed-piston engine is a reciprocating internal combustion engine in which each cylinder has a piston at both ends, and no cylinder head.Whereas the radial engine is a reciprocating type internal combustion engine configuration in which the cylinders point outward from a central crankshaft like the spokes on a wheel.


What are two type of engine?

The two types of mechanical engine are reciprocating and rotary. They can also be internal or external combustion. These can be further sub-divided.


What is the difference between a 2 stroke engine and generator?

A 2-stroke engine is a type of internal combustion engine, and a generator is something that turns a motion into electricity.


What is a type of internal combustion engine?

An internal combustion engine is an engine where the fuel combustion happens inside a combustion chamber. There are both Reciprocating and Rotary engines that fall into this category. Most cars on the road today use internal combustion engines. An example would be the V-8 Hemi engines that Dodge puts in their trucks.


Is diesel engine a continuous combustion engine or intermittent combustion engine?

Type of combustion is determined by the engine, not the fuel. Intermittent or reciprocating engines such as those found in cars and trucks can run on diesel. Gas turbines AKA jet engines can also run on diesel however they are continuous combustion engines. The answer to your question depends on the type of engine you have in mind. If it has pistons then it will be intermittent.


How you can now if the engine is internal combustion or external combustion while it is not working?

By looking at the build of it. If it's a gas turbine, jet engine, ramjet, or rocket motor, then it's not internal combustion. If it uses pistons in enclosed cylinders, then the combustion occurs internally, within the engine housing. Hence, that would be an internal combustion motor. a reciprocating steam engine is external combustion even though it has enclosed cylinders

What is a stirling engine generator?

A Stirling engine generator falls into the category of external combustion engine. This type of engine converts heat energy to mechanical work by compressing and expanding air or other gas.


What are internal combustion power plant?

The power plant includes an internal combustion engine and a direct current electric motor generator.


What engine part converts linear motion to rotational motion inside a reciprocating internal combustion engine?

In a reciprocating internal combustion engine, the component that converts linear motion to rotational motion is the crankshaft. As the pistons move linearly within the cylinders due to the combustion process, the connecting rods attached to the pistons are connected to the crankshaft. This design allows the up-and-down motion of the pistons to turn the crankshaft, which then translates that motion into rotational energy to drive the vehicle.
