What does the brushes and commentator in a D C motor do?
i have never heard of a commentator in a motor, think you may be mistaking that word. inside an electric motor you have a stator and windings, as polarity changes it spins the stator and the brushes transfer the charge to the device being used.. I think they meant commutator. If you break an electric motor down to 2 parts, you have a commutator and an armature. the armature being the shaft that basically floats on bearings, and the commutator being the hull where the stator is. (and there is such thing as a brushless electric motor.) the stator does not spin. that is the term used for the magnets that pull the electric field supplied by the brushes. To make even more simple, imagine a shaft floating on bearings with 2 magnets on it, one positive and one negative ( the armature) and this shaft is inside of a ring of electricity the is flowing in one direction, its going to pull the negative and push the positive (the commutator) and cause the armature to spin.
What will happen when you turn the shaft of an electric motor by hand?
When you turn the shaft of an electric motor by hand, you generate mechanical energy that can induce an electrical current in the motor's windings, effectively turning it into a generator. This process is based on electromagnetic induction, where the motion of the rotor within the magnetic field produces voltage. If the motor is connected to a circuit, this generated electricity can power devices or charge batteries. However, depending on the motor's design and load, turning it by hand may also create resistance, making it difficult to rotate.
How can you measure electric motor RPM without a strobe?
Two methods, one uses a dial that is held in the center of the revolving shaft and is directly read off of the dial face. The second method uses a strobe light. The light is focused on the shaft and the dial on the strobe is turned until it looks like the shaft has come to a stand still. The RPM is read off of the meter face of the strobe light.
When you turn on an electric motor it takes longer to come up to final speed if a grinding wheel is attached to the shaft why?
When an electric motor is turned on with a grinding wheel attached to the shaft, it takes longer to reach its final speed due to the increased inertia from the added mass of the wheel. The motor must overcome this inertia, which requires more torque and time to accelerate to the desired speed. Additionally, the grinding wheel may create resistance due to friction and load, further slowing down the acceleration process.
Where to oil electric motor?
To oil an electric motor, locate the oiling holes or bearings, typically found on the ends of the motor casing. Use a lightweight machine oil or a specific electric motor oil, applying a few drops as needed. Avoid over-oiling, as it can attract dust and debris, which may hinder motor performance. Always refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines for specific maintenance recommendations.

Can you put a long shaft motor on a boat with a short transom?
Yes, you can put a long shaft motor on a boat with a short transom, but it may not be the most efficient setup. The motor's lower unit may be positioned too low in the water, which can affect performance, reduce speed, and create drag. Additionally, it may lead to issues with cavitation and handling. It's generally recommended to match the motor shaft length to the transom height for optimal performance.
How do you change inhibitor switch on falcon AU 2 2000?
It may be rusted on to the shaft coming out of the auto. Break it off, but do not bend the shaft.
An electric motor converts electrical energy to potential energy?
They don't. An electric motor is designed to convert electrical energy to kinetic energy, not the other way round. A device that converts kinetic energy to electrical energy is called a generator or a dynamo. Sometimes the same device can do both things (convert in both directions), but since the device is especially optimized for one function, it may not be very good at the other one.
what makes an electric scooter whine when in drive?
It's the electric motor straining. A stronger battery may help.
Will a 5.0 mustang motor bolt up to 2.3 mustang transmission?
Yes but i think the imput shaft may be different.
Why are electrical motors useful?
If you lose power the electric motor may supply power.
1993 Plymouth Voyager rear windshield wiper suddenly stopped wiping it is stuck and the wiper motor continues to make noise Is the motor shot Is it a fuse?
Sounds like the wiper pivot went bad. Removing the arm is a bit of a treat on some of them. You may need the arm if it doesn't come off well. I would have to agree with this answer. I believe by the word pivot, that is referring to the splined shaft that comes out from the motor. Yes they can be a bear to get the wiper arm off which has recessed splines to match the splines on the shaft. To me it sounds like the motor is operating, but slipping in the wiper arm. The spines may have gotten rusty and wore away. I would spray the shaft and arm with some break free or similar item and let it sit awhile and then try to remove the wiper arm. You may to actually gently try and pry it off. If it is in fact slipping, you would think that it would come off pretty easy. Make sure that the break free will not harm your paint. When you replace the wiper, I would put some grease or anti-sieze on the motor shaft and use a rubber mallet to get the new arm on (making sure the splines are lined up) the shaft. I have replaced the rear wiper arm on my Voyager and it takes some patience. : - )
What size hydraulic motor is needed to be equal to a 3 hp electric motor?
To determine the size of the hydraulic motor needed to be equal to a 3 hp electric motor, you would need to calculate the hydraulic motor's power output in horsepower. Hydraulic motors are generally less efficient than electric motors, so you may need a larger hydraulic motor to match the power output of a 3 hp electric motor. Consult the manufacturer's specifications and consider factors such as efficiency and operating conditions.
