How an electric fan works?

Answer 1

Ceiling fans spin rapidly, pushing air around and creating wind to make you feel cooler. Wind is moving air, and helps perspiration. Actually, the fans don't cool the room down. In fact, since motors generate heat by using energy, they warm the room up gradually. That means that fresh air is needed.

Answer 2

An electric fan works by using an electric motor to spin blades, creating airflow. When the motor is powered on, it turns a rotor, which rotates the fan blades. As the blades move through the air, they create a breeze that helps to cool the surrounding area.

Answer 3

The "best" answer to this curious question might be that a fan is made up of many, many atoms, and an atom is only a single "unit" of matter. The atom will be an element. The fan will contain many different elements in its structure. An atom is an "unbonded" entity, and the fan will contain its (almost) countless atoms bound in chemical and mechanical ways to give the fan is physical shape and structure. A fan is macroscopic, and an atom is far smaller than microscopic. Lastly, we cannot destroy an atom in the "conventional" physical sense, but we can demolish a fan completely.

If the question put by the person means something different, then the answer also changes.

Fan to exemplify the atom's performance, will it be correct? How does it differ?

To such a question the answer is: NO

Here the head rotates at the same angular speed as the blades do. But in the atom nuclear spin would be different with the orbital speed of electrons in their orbits.

Secondly, orbital plane in case of fan is restricted to two dimension. But in case of atom electron orbits around the nucleus in different planes oriented in three dimension.

The whole blade is held by the material link but in case of atom electrons are held only by electrostatic attractive forces

Answer 4

One key thing if you are talking about the blades and the electrons. The blades of a fan revolve in a circle. However, the movement of an electron is within a sphere or other 3 dimensional paths

Answer 5

the electrons move around the nucleus,kind like the the blades of a fan. hope that helps (y)

Answer 6

A rotating electric fan is an excellent visual model of the atom. The base is the nucleus and protons and the spinning blade represents the electrons.

Answer 7

The blades spin so fast they are like a blur. Atoms spin so fast they are like a blur.

Answer 8

depends what kind of non electric fan you are talkin about. but i would reckon manual labour would work for a non electric fan

Answer 9

An electric motor powers the blades of the fan. The blades are shaped so that they push air out at 90 degrees to the plane of rotation.

Answer 10

The blade of the fan spines so fast that you can see through it.

The atoms move fast that they are like a blur.
