Why does your General Electric washing machine smell like burnt rubber and now refuses to agitate or spin?

It sounds like the rotating tub has ceased and the motor is still trying to rotate the tub. The drive belt is spinning on the drive motor's pulley and creating heat and the burning smell. Don't try and use the washer any more until the tub bearing or its gearbox has been repaired. The drive belt rubbing on the pulley can generate enough heat that the belt might combust into flames.


How does cycle pedal Generator produced electricity?

the pedals drive the wheel, the wheel drive an electrical generator.2 possibilities for the wheel to drive the generator:-the wheel does not have a tire: a belt goes in the rim and drive a puley on the shaft of the generator.-the wheel has a tire: there is a drive roller on the shaft of the generator. the drive roller is pressed on the tire.The generator can be of any kind. They are commonly car alternator or permanent magnet dc motor, but you can also drive an alternative current squirel cage generator.
