What is the name of device which generate current?
A generator or an alternator.
What is the name of the electrical part that is used to change the amount of current that flows to a heater motor?
A resistor resists the flow of current in a circuit but a transistor changes the amount of current through a device. This is called current magnification. Field effect transistors FETs and MOSFETs (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) may also change the amount of current to a load lastly a variable resistor or a potentiometer or a variable resistor can variate the amount of current at your will
What is the name of the device that regulates the amount of fuel going into the engine of a personal?
The name of the device that regulates the amount of fuel going into the engine of a personal watercraft is the throttle.
Name device which permits direct current and opposes the flow of alternating current?
A diode does that.
What is the name of the device that regulates the amount of fuel going into the engine of a personal watercraft?
The name of the device that regulates the amount of fuel going into the engine of a personal watercraft is the throttle.
Is IGBT the bipolar device?
IGBT and BJT are bipolar devices as the name suggest. Meaning of bipolar device both electrons and holes leads to current unlike FET where either electron or hole causes current.
What is the name of a variable resistor with 3 terminals?
It's called a 'variable resistor'. However, it can function as a 'rheostat' (to control current) when two terminals are connected, or as a 'potentiometer' (to control voltage) when three terminals are connected. The terms, 'rheostat' and 'potentiometer' do not describe the device itself, but how it is being used.
What is the name of the hormone necessary to control the amount of glucose in blood?
insulin
What is the name of the device that changes the ratio of a current in voltage?
A transformer. it steps up / down voltage, and steps down / up current.
What is a RC transmitter used for?
According to information RC transmitters relates to radio signals for a remote control device. The radio singles are transmitted to any device that has been designed to work by remote control such as toy helicopters and remote control cars to name just a couple of remote control types of items.
What is a posistor?
A Posistor is actually Murata's "name brand" for a device called a Positive Coefficient Thermistor. Used in many in-rush current control circuits, a positive coefficient thermistor is a resistor that starts with a relatively low resistance value at room temperature (25C) then, when heated from current flowing through it, its value quickly rises to a very high resistance.One very common use of this device is to control the current flow through a CRT degaussing coil on picture-tube style (CRT) televisions and monitors.These devices come in either positive coefficient thermal values (PTC) (eg: resistance increases as temperature / current increases) or negative coefficient values (NTC) (eg: resistance decreases as temperature / current increases).Manufacturers include Nichicon, Murata, Vishay and a myriad of discrete device companies.(Eric Peterson, Dunedin FL)
What is the name of device?
The name of device was material.
