Just a simple electric generator

would it be practical to run a conventional petrol electric generator driven by cycle pedals?

January 9th, 2011

Can anyone tell me if this is a feasable consideration? My theory is to power a generator by removing the engine and conecting pedals etc and using pedal power! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What does a electric generator has to do with physics?

January 1st, 2011

Tomorrow my group has to present are physic project and we did a simple generator. We did not get it to work but my teacher said it was fine because he said we generated energy or something like that because the wires were getting hot. So tomorrow my group have to explain how it works and how it has to do with physics. Can you give me answer so I can easily comprehend because my group has to talk about and I have to learn about these things

describe in detail how a electric generator works and the factors that affect magnetic induction in a?

generator. complete this question by describing how power output will vary by changing or removing any of the factors on power output.

Is "force" required to spin an electric generator or is it "power"?

November 21st, 2010

and whats the relationship of power and force?

Electric Generator: stronger permanent magnet means..? Lets say electric generator #1 has a stronger permanen

November 8th, 2010

Lets say electric generator #1 has a stronger permanent magnet, and generator #2 is the same as generator one, except for ONLY having a weaker permanent magent.

does this mean that to spin generator #1 at the same speed as a generator #2, you need to exert more "Force" on generator #1 than you do on gen. #2? by "force" i mean the physics definition M*A.

"help me to make simple electric generator"?

November 3rd, 2010

i wanna make an electric generator using magnet for my project.
so is there any one who can help me to make this working model. please tell me the detail procedure or the step…………….

Which conversion process is the basic function of the electric generator?

October 22nd, 2010

mechanical energy to electrical energy
electrical energy to mechanical energy
low emf to high emf, or vice versa
alternating current to direct current

Is it possible to have a generator powering a 2300 sq foot home as opposed to using the local electric company

October 20th, 2010

I have progress energy here in Raleigh, NC and they charge {content}.10 per kilowatt which is outrageous. They are also a monopoly. I no option to switch electric companies. The home is 2300 square feet and is all electric. No gas appliances. Would it be possible to switch to a generator and just buy gas when needed? If so, how long would it be before I notice the savings?

Could it be possible to make an electric generator with the mechanism of self-winding watch?

October 16th, 2010

Automatic devices such as mechanical watches are self-winding. could we use similar technology for power generation?

I wnat to make electric generator for my home with an engine of px 150 any one help me out in this regard thx.?

October 10th, 2010

How I made generator with Px 150 engine.

How to make a electric generator for a project???

October 9th, 2010

it should be a little compact and should have a higher efficiency that can generate more current.

which is better, a propane or gas powered portable electric generator?

October 7th, 2010

Also, which is quieter? which has the least amount of problems?

Can you use an electric motor on a wind generator to produce electricity?

October 7th, 2010

Isn’t an electric motor just a generator in reverse?

how can i make my own electric generator?

October 4th, 2010

im working on a project to rig something to shock people and i was wondering if i could use the hand crank generator idea….i figured if i put a magnet on something that spins and put a coil of copper wire next to it and somehow get them to touch the coil, would this work and if not does anybody have anymore ideas?

What size electric generator I need for my three bed room home?

October 4th, 2010

Can person use an electric generator in place of using a power supplier?

October 1st, 2010

You see….I’m looking to have my power shutt off because as a single mother with only one income, I cannot afford the bill anymore. Just looking for other options.

Where can I get a low friction electric generator?

September 30th, 2010

I need an electric generator to produce about 0.35 volts for 2 seconds. The electric generator will be driven by a falling pendulum, so I need it to be very low friction. Does anyone know where I could get an electric motor or generator that would accomplish this?! Thanks for your help!!

What oil should I use on a diesel electric generator?

September 29th, 2010

Hi.

My diesel electric generator has a sticker that says "Change oil every 100hrs. Use 10w-30 grade CC." But I can’t find this oil anywhere. The closest I have found are 10w-30 Mobil1 synthetic oil (API SM/CF) and 15w-40 Pennzoil gold (with diesel protection, API CJ, CI, CF etc. /SM). Which one should I use?

Thanks!

What materials found in the community can be turned to as a electric generator?

September 29th, 2010

Just like the potato or lemon used as electric generator, but it’s common already. I’m looking for possible and unique ideas I can use for my science investigatory project.
Hope you help. Thanks a lot. God bless.

How do i increase the power output of a gasoline electric generator with a max 900watt output to 1200watts?

September 28th, 2010

i need the electric generator to power a 0.5hp electric motor pump. ideally 900W power is sufficient to run the motor but the problem is startup power surge. it seems i need more juice from the generator.

How do you make an electric generator that transforms 30 Mw of mechanical power into 150 kV electricity?

September 27th, 2010

Would the construction be the same for an AC/DC generator (what’s the difference between the two?)?
On a side note, what’s the difference between an electric generator and an electric motor? Thanks a lot.
