Direct Current (DC) motors Name: University 1.0 Introduction A Direct Current (DC) motor is one of the broader classification of electric motors which operate from a direct current. Nearly all mechanical devices applied in daily life activities are powered by electric motors. Motors transform electrical energy to mechanical energy, hence they are essential for energy conversions in electrical machines. All types of electrical motors are made up of a stationary field referred to a stator and…

generation, transmission and distribution? Task 4 (D1) Electricity has greatly evolved from what it once was, to be fit for our modern day consumption and usage. Electrical engineering was first pioneered in the early 19th century, and great progress had been made by the time the 19th century came to a close. Most of the advancements were made by the likes of Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse; who all aided in making electricity what it is today. In 1878 Thomas Edison started…

Introduction: The name of our hotel is the Green is Grass. The concept of our hotel is about green, environmental friendly and sustainable development. We will build our hotel in an island of the Caribbean Sea, named Barbuda. And the location we chose in the island is near the sea. So it not only we can provide the ocean or lagoon view to our guests. But also we can use the nature resource convenient. This paper explain the following of our utilities: Overview of Grass is Green Hotel, materials…

changed the world in many ways across his lifetime. ("Nikola Tesla Biography.”) . The Alternating Current is the most recognizable of all his inventions, and is still widely used across the globe to this day. The Alternating Current can make electricity flow either direction, which is more useful than the Direct Current which flows in only 1 direction. This was one of his most important inventions, because of how much it changed the world, and how much energy it saved. It was much more…

The discovery of electricity and the invention of the lightbulb in the mid-19th century revolutionized the American society, politics, and culture. During the mid 19th century life was different: candles were the only source of light, transport was steam-powered, food was stored in ice boxes. However, within the next fifty years, electricity would change that. In 1878, Thomas Edison invented the incandescent lightbulb; in 1888, Frank Sprague’s electric trolley system became the first…

saying how energy is used everywhere in our lives and most of the appliances we use today would be useless without energy. They then begin to explain atoms and how they have to do with electricity. “Electrons can be made to move from one atom to another. When those electrons move between the atoms, a current of electricity is created.”(Energy story, paragraph 11) this quote shows the reader that energy is like an infinite chain that is practically always moving energy along from one atom to the…

Honor is to regard with great or respect or to have high esteem for someone or something. My personal definition of honor is to be a productive member in society and to help out others around you. Thomas Edison In 1877 Thomas Edison invented the first phonograph. A phonograph is a sound reproducing that uses cylinders to record sound as well as reproduce sound. In 1879 Thomas Edison built the first commercially practical incandescent light bulb. Edison also introduced the world's first viable…

Let Your NYC Electrician Electrify Your World! You should let your electrician "electrify" your world in a positive instead of negative way. They're the pros you turn to whenever there's an electrical problem in your home that involves more than simply flipping the breaker upwards after it went down or waiting for the brief power outage to finally end. The most delicate of electrical jobs involve the risk of electrocution, so you must never attempt to fix such problems and let a qualified,…

Squishy Circuits have all helped me learn a lot more about electricity. The purpose of these sources were to help the reader to understand and inform the reader about how electricity is made. It also showed how easy it is to make electricity. These three sources have many differences and similarities but they all serve the same purpose. In the video Hands-On Science with Squishy Circuits it talks about how easy it is to make electricity with things you probably have in your kitchen. Annmarie…

Responsible for the radio, x-ray machine, and many other innovations, Nikola Tesla receives almost no credit for his master mind. Even though he was not recognized for his works, he still kept pursuing his dream primarily to create a better world for man-kind to inhabit. Nikola Tesla, known only as a footnote in the history of engineering, has shaped our modern day interactions by his dedication to doing the “impossible.” How a man is raised will not only impact him, but those who are prominent…
