No, usually much less, but they don't emit gases.

How loud is an electric car?

They're very quiet compared to a internal combustion engine. This is because the RPM and Torque comes from very few parts rather then the thousands in the internal combustion engine.


Is electric car an internal combustion engine or is the a different type of engine?

An electric car is powered by a large electric motor. This motor is powered by the use of magnets in a coil inside the motor. When electric current is run through the motor, the drive shaft spins. This type of motor has an advantage over internal combustion engines because it offers all its torque at 0 rpm, thousands less than internal combustion engines. This makes the car quicker to start and accelerate.


When a car moves on a road which force actually moves the car?

torque turns the wheels which moves internal combustion/electric cars. In a jet car, thrust is the force the moves the car.


Do electric cars run smooth?

Yes since they don't run on a internal combustion engine the RPM and the torque is directly placed into the drive train or transmission causing a faster acceleration and a quieter more stable engine.


Do electric cars have engines, and if so, how do they differ from traditional combustion engines in terms of performance and maintenance?

Electric cars do not have traditional combustion engines. Instead, they have electric motors that are powered by batteries. Electric motors are simpler, have fewer moving parts, and require less maintenance compared to combustion engines. They also provide instant torque for better performance and are more energy-efficient.


Why steam engines have high starting torque?

in steam engines, the steam has to be compressed, which needs less torque than the internal combustion engine, where fuel air mixture is compressed Hence, the case!


Why are electric motors more efficient than combustion engines?

Electric motors are more efficient than combustion engines because they can convert a higher percentage of energy from the electricity they receive into mechanical energy for propulsion. Combustion engines waste energy in the form of heat, while electric motors have fewer moving parts and do not rely on combustion processes, resulting in higher efficiency. Additionally, electric motors can generate torque instantly, providing better acceleration and performance.


How is an electric motor better than an international combustion engine?

Electric motors are generally more efficient than internal combustion engines (ICE), converting over 90% of electrical energy into mechanical power, while ICEs typically convert only about 20-30% of fuel energy. Electric motors produce instant torque, resulting in quicker acceleration and smoother operation. Additionally, they generate less noise and zero tailpipe emissions, contributing to reduced air pollution and a smaller environmental footprint. Overall, electric motors offer a more sustainable and efficient alternative to traditional combustion engines.


What is function of starter motor?

To turn the engine over fast enough for the engine to fire and start.To provide rotational speed (RPM) to the internal combustion engine's crankshaft so that the combustion process can begin, allowing the engine to then power itself. Once this is accomplished, the starter motor is disengaged (as the key is released, typically).The internal combustion engine is unable to produce torque at zero RPM, so a method must be employed to get it up to speed. This might be a human-powered method such as a hand crank or a pull rope as a lawnmower; it could be a mechanical method such as an electric starter motor.Electric motors and steam engines are capable of producing torque at zero RPM.


What does a internal combustion engine do?

Essentially creates a continuous force. At ignition, the fuel / air mix burns , raising the temperature and pressure in the combustion space, this pressure acts over the piston area creating a force which is translated (via the connecting rod) as torque to the crankshaft.
