Lock rotor most likely cause of electric motor overheat?

If the motor's shaft will not turn (is locked) because maybe its bearings have seized - up or the thing it is driving has got damaged so it won't allow the shaft to turn, the motor will overheat in short-order.

How do you write a comprehensive report in the field of agriculture?

First do some form of research on agriculture. Then include in the report the topics that agriculture are based upon which are, cultivation of animals and plants, farming, and all life forms of food.

What type of transformer is needed before the electricity from the Power Station is sent into the National Grid?

From the Generator station, the voltage is sent to a step up transformer. Transmission at higher voltages is used to over come line loss over the miles of transmission.

Differentiate delta to delta connection of the transformer to delta to Y connection?

In delta to delta there will be no ground on both primary and secondary sides. Leave the primary side but we take care on secondary side. If there any fault occurs on the secondary then there will be unbalanced voltages between the phases results in the flow of current through the secondary windings so only we are using star on the secondary side while having neutral to prevent such a current flow.

Who gets paid more a chartered accountant or a software engineer?

As far as CA is considered for Freshers without exp. average salay will be around Rs. 6 Lakhs per annum. In case of Software Engineer, it is around Rs. 2.5 Lakhs per annum.

Replace two speed electric motor with single speed electric motor?

Replace with single speed of the same electrical, speed, and mechanical considerations for mounting, choosing the preferred speed from the existing two speed.

In general it is common practice especially in the HVAC industry to replace a three speed motor with a four speed motor, using only three of the speeds that match the existing.

Replacement must be with a single speed of the same horsepower, torque, and other electrical considerations of the needed or preferred two speed choice of speeds. Often the choice of speed, changes the horsepower or torque.

On which line is the switch of electrical appliance connected?

A Switch on a domestic supply has always got to be on the LIVE part of that circuit. A double pole switch switches both the LIVE and NEUTRAL off together.

What is pmmc?

pmmc stands for permanent magnet moving coil instruments these instruments are secondary measuring instruments in these instruments a permanent magnet is installed and a moving coil in this way when current is passed through the fixed coil then a force will be developed on the moving coil and thus it moves and with this moving pointer moves on the scale and gives the corresponding reading . if someone wants to read it thoroughly then he can try ashfaq hussain , j.b.gupta of basic elelctrical engg. for b.tech first year .

Can instrument tubing be ran in cable tray?

you need cable tray rated wire to use in a cable try

a cable tray is basically open to air so the current rating of the wire doesnt need to be reduced if you have more than 4 conductors

cable tray rated tubing is fine( temperature flammability) steel or copper is fine.

Is it true that parallel circuits and series circuits have no similarity?

No. It is true they are not the same, which is completely different than saying they share nothing in common. An apple and an orange are not the same, but they are similar in that they are both fruit, grow on trees, need sunlight to grow, are generally considered good breakfast juices, etc.

What is pulse width and speed relation in stepper motor?

A: A stepper motor move a step at the time. If you know the steps then you will know the speed per tum. The motor need current pulses with a fast rise time the width is immaterial once moved

Why id voltage different in series circuits and the same in parallel circuits?

Parallel circuit: The fact that the voltage is the same follows from Kirchoff's Voltage Law.

Series circuit: The voltages of the individual resistances must add up to the total voltage. This, too, follows from Kirchoff's Voltage Law. If the resistances have the same values, all of them will drop the same voltage (which, of course, will be less than the total resistance). But if they are different, Kirchoff's current law tells us that the same current must flow through each resistor in series - and the voltages will be different in this case, according to Ohm's law.

What does each phase look like and what are they called?

each phase looks like an ocean star and if you have woken up with it you can see it shines brightly

What happens to the capacitance when a conducting slab of thickness is partially placed in between?

If the slab is zero thickness, nothing. The lines of electric field not intercepted by the slab are unaffected, so what goes on there is unaffected. The part where the lines are intercepted is converted to two capacitors in series, and the charges on opposite sides of the slab are equal and opposite, equal to the charge on the parts original outer plates facing it. From the outside view of the world, nothing changes on the outer plates, so the capacitance is the same. If the plate is not zero thickeness, then the capacitors on that side become higher and so the total capacitance will increase, with significant distortions of field lines.

For a parallel-plate capacitor with small spacing, so that fringing can be neglected, with a flat slab of dielectric, the new capacitance is easily calculated by noting that the electric flux D is continuous, and in the volume occupied by the dielectric the E-field is reduced by a factor equal to the relative permittivity. Thus the voltage is reduced for a given amount of charge and the capacitance increased.

If the plate area is A and the spacing is s and the dielectric thickness d, then with a charge Q on the plates the electric flux is just D = Q/A. The electric field on a line between the plates is D/eps0 in the air and D/(eps0 x epsr) inside the dielectric. Therefore the voltage is D/eps0 x (s-d) from the two air paths plus D/(eps0 x epsr) x d from the dielectric path.

So the capacitance in this case is given by:

C = A x eps0 / [s - d(1 - 1/epsr)]

So if d=0 or epsr=1, as they are when there is no dielectric, the capacitance reverts to the standard formula for parallel plates:

C = A x eps0 / s

How does the relation v equals ir apply to resistors that do not obey ohm law?

Ohm's Law states that 'the current flowing through a wire at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across the ends of that wire'.

The ratio of voltage to current is the resistance of the circuit. For Ohm's Law to apply, this ratio must be constantover a range of voltage increments -in other words, Ohm's Law only applies to a circuit whose resistance is constant over a range of voltage increments. Resistors follow this rule.

However, the ratio of R= V/I applies whether Ohm's Law applies or not. For example, the resistance of a tungsten filament will increase as the voltage across it increases. So the ratio of voltage to current constantly changes for tungsten and, so, it does not obey Ohm's Law. However, you can still use the equation R = V/I to determine what the resistance happens to be for each voltage increment.

What is the current required in 80kva generatoor?

You need to specify how many volts in order to have this question answered. And then it becomes a simple matter of solving the power equation.

Power = volts times amps

80KVA = {well, you fill in the blanks and solve, I don't have the data}

What is an electrosurgical generator?

An electrosurgical generator is a piece of medical equipment. The generator takes mains AC current and turns it into radio frequency (>100Khz) AC current. This current can then be used to cause a tissue effect in a patient (i.e. cutting, coagulation, fulguration).

What is relation between settling time and real roots of a system?

Settling Time and the Real roots of a system are related reciprocally.

Why is it the oil transformer commonly install outdoor?

Most outdoor power and distribution transformers are oil filled. There are two reasons for this: (1) to cool the transformer and, (2) insulate the windings and other components, allowing the overall physical size of the transformer to be reduced and, therefore, provide a smaller 'footprint'.
