Is a ceiling fan motor good for making an electric go-kart?
NO. Alternating current motors are terrible for go karts because the inverter required to power the motor under load is WAY more expensive than a more powerful Direct current motor. For example, 250watt A/C motor may only take 250watts to run, but under load it may require as much as 1000 watts or more to get you up to speed.
What is induction time in paint?
The induction time is a period of time in which the freshly mixed material (paint) is allowed to stand before application
What type of motor is used in a starter motor?
None, it is an electric motor In fact, most cars have SERIES connected starter motors - an electric motor where the field windings (the ones that are fitted to the case of the machine and don't move) have the same current flowing in them that the armature (the rotating part of the motor) has. A series motor has very high starting torque, so it's ideal for getting a large lump of scrap metal turning over, but it has poor running (high speed) torque and poor speed control. (Speed control is so poor that if you spin up a starter motor without a load, it may over-speed and possibly throw its windings out of the armature!) Some starter motors use permanent magnets for the field system - these magnets are quite powerful and give the motor good starting torque, and magnet systems are smaller than the series coil systems, and make the starter motor a bit lighter and cheaper. These motors also have a lower top speed at no load, too.
How many watts are consumed by a starter motor if it draws 150 amperes at 10 volts?
Power (W) = Current (I) X Voltage (V)Therefore a system drawing 150 Amps at 10 VoltsP=150X10P=1500 wattsor 1.5 kWAnswerWithout wishing to be pedantic, power is not 'consumed' by a load such as a starter motor. Power is simply a 'rate', the rate at which the load is consuming energy. You cannot 'consume' a rate, therefore, you cannot 'consume' watts! So your question should be rephrased to ask 'What is the power of a starter motor?', or words to that effect.
What is the part of speech for induct?
Verb. The noun is induction.
