Why are generators helpful?

Electrical generators produce electric power, and generators solve the problem of production. We use electricity in countless ways, and we need to access some kind of generator if we can't directly access the power grid.


How are hydroelectric power stations built?

Firstly, the topographer makes a detailed study of the topography on the local, in which the hydroelectric power plant will be built. Then on an appropriate place the terrain is lowered to form the waterfall which will move the turbines that will generate electricity. The river is blocked to form a huge dam and it has a channel to make the water fall from the top of the dam. Many stages to be followed until the turbines begin to generate electricity.


Which item would not increase voltage and generate an electrical current?

A simple resistor would not increase voltage or generate an electrical current. Resistors are used to limit the flow of current in a circuit and dissipate energy in the form of heat, but they do not add energy to the system. Therefore, they cannot increase voltage or generate electrical current on their own.


What generator produce voltage or power?

First of all power = voltage* current*power factor (a constant that varies on the characteristics of the electrical system) so to generate power a generator has to a level of voltage and should be capable to handle the current demand of the load (viz electrical load like the bulb we use at home or the pump motor - everything connected to the generator by electrical wire put together).


What is the application of generator and motors?

A generator converts mechanical power into electrical power. A motor converts electrical power into mechanical power.

What is hdroeletricity?

Hydroelectric power is generated by water passing through the blades of a turbine to generate electricity. Typically this is done at a waterfall or dam.


How to generate power from piezoelectricity?

mainly Piezoelectric crystal is a transducer which convert mechanical energy to electrical energy.piezoelectricity material generate power, when we compress or extended its shape.means that when we change in dimension of material then the voltage produced between atoms of material by which power generate.


What would be the best source of creating electrical power in outer space?

Where do power companies get their electricity from?

They generate it by converting mechanical energy to electrical energy using generators inside power plants.


What is a output voltage?

You can compare a power supply to a waterfall of energy. The high of the waterfall is the output voltage, and the quantity of water in the river is the current intensity. The power generate is a combination of the intensity and the voltage: P=UI (the effective power is the result of the multiplication of the voltage and the intensity). That explain why higher the voltage is, less intensity is needed to have the same power. It is the same in a waterfall, higher it is, less water you need to make a mill turning.
