An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

Electric motors work on the principal of the interaction between magnetic field electr-magnetism. A loop which is carrying the current is placed in a magnetic field. The loop will experience a torque. The torque starts rotating the coil and the propellers start to rotate when the current passes through the loop.

Answer:

(Straight out of Physics textbook)

Explanation:

An electric motor is a slightly modified galvanometer. An electric motor current changes direction every time the coil makes a half revolution. Electric motors have greatly impacted the way of life. It made it possible to replace enormous human and animal toil by electric power all over the world.

A body from the top of a 180 m high mountain is abandoned. Disregarding air resistance and adopting g = 10m / s2, determine:
elena55 [62]

Answer:

1) 6 seconds

2) 60 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 180 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

1) Find t.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

180 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s²) t²

t = 6 s

2) Find v.

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (10 m/s²) (180 m)

v = 60 m/s
