What is deifference between steam engene and electric engine?
A steam engine requires water to be heated to produce steam. This steam is used in pistons to produce movement, as in a steam train. An electric engine can produce the same energy, as in an electric car, and is far less bulky than a steam engine.
If the electric train went south and the wind went east which way did the steam go?
Generally speaking electric trains don't make smoke.
What is the difference between a steam train and a electric train?
A steam train is powered by steam generated from boiling water, typically using coal or wood as fuel, which drives a piston to turn the wheels. In contrast, an electric train relies on electricity supplied through overhead wires or an electrified track, using electric motors for propulsion. Steam trains are generally older technology and are often associated with historical railways, while electric trains are more efficient, faster, and commonly used in modern rail systems. Additionally, electric trains produce less pollution during operation compared to steam trains.

Is a steam engine the same as a train?
No, a steam engine is not the same as a train. A steam engine is a type of engine that converts steam energy into mechanical work, while a train refers to a series of connected vehicles that run on tracks and can be powered by various types of engines, including steam engines, diesel engines, or electric motors. In essence, a steam engine can be a component of a train, but a train encompasses much more than just the engine itself.
If an electric train is travelling 80 km an hour north and the wind is blowing 40 km east what way is the steam going to travell?
If the wind wasn't blowing and the train was moving it would blow south. If the train was stopped and the wind was blowing east the steam would be blowing east. Because the train is moving and the wind is blowing it would be moving both to the south and the east. diferent answer by another person me... An electric train does not have steam!!!!!!!
