Name the device that converts electrical energy into wind energy?
A fan
Can you store electric power?
Yes, a battery is an electrical storage device.
How many kinds of electric charge are there?
There are two. Positive + and Negative - Positive is carried by the proton and negative is carried by the electron. What is usually talked about when people talk about charge is electrical potential. At zero potential there are equal number of electrons and protons. But in the real world that seldom happens so electrical potential is correct the potential difference between the state of two objects. In other words which one has the most or least electrons compared to its number of protons. Since this is hard to count we are lucky that the excess one of the other creates an electrical field and we can measure the strength of the field as a measure of the charge. The most common device to do this is a voltmeter which measures the electrical potential difference between to conductors such as the ends of a battery. There are other devices to measure the magnitude of static electrical fields.
What device is used to determon the pressure of an electrical charge?
pzt
What is the difference between capacitor and capacitance?
A capacitor is a device that stores an electrical charge, or if you prefer- resists any change in voltage applied to it. Capacitance is a measure of the size or ability of a capacitor to do that. This is the Farad
What 2 ways that electrical charge can be produced?
Generator (mechanical device), batteries (chemical device).
What is the purpose of a charge coupled device?
The purpose of a charged coupled device is to control the movement of electrical charges, usually from within a device to an area where the charge can be manipulated.The charge coupled device is used in mainly digital imaging.
Electronic device that can hold an electrical charge for a period of time?
A capacitor!
What device produces a magnetic field froma moving electrical charge?
magnet
What is the name of a heat sink carrying an electrical charge that causes it to act as an electrical thermal transfer device?
a peltier
Why can't static charge be used to operate an electrical device?
Static charge does not provide a steady flow of electricity.
Can a fuse be used to store and electrical charge?
No.A fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit.
Abbrevation of CCD in optical character recognition?
CCD = Charge-Coupled Device. This device moves an electrical charge. For optical character recognition, it is the device in the scanner that recognizes a mark on a scanned page as a letter.
How can charge be produce?
Electrical charge can be produced from an electromagnet. This is a core i.e. iron wrapped in a wire coil. A magnetic device then passing by can cause an electrical charge to be produced, typically AC (alternating current).
What is charge detector?
A charge detector is a type of device that is used to calculate the total charge or force between two different objects. This device is used by electrical engineers as a form of protection against electrocution.
