Trajectory, path and movement

The position of a material point is determined in relation to some other, arbitrarily chosen body, called a body of reference. A reference system is associated with it - a set of coordinate systems and clocks associated with the reference body. In the Cartesian system

How to improve the efficiency of an electric motor?

Electric motors appeared quite a long time ago, but great interest in them arose when they began to represent an alternative to internal combustion engines. Of particular interest is the issue of electric motor efficiency, which is one of its main characteristics.

Concept, definition, application

Today we will tell you what efficiency (coefficient of performance) is, how to calculate it, and where this concept is applied. Man and mechanism What unites a washing machine and a cannery? A person’s desire to relieve himself of the need to do everything on his own

What is efficiency

Efficiency, by definition, is the ratio of energy received to energy expended. If an engine burns gasoline and only a third of the resulting heat is converted into vehicle propulsion energy, then the efficiency is one third or (rounded to the nearest whole) 33%. If the light bulb

The topic of efficiency and fuel efficiency

Efficiency (coefficient of performance) is the degree of efficiency of using fuel energy in the engine; the higher it is, the more thermal energy from the combustion of fuel is converted in the engine into mechanical energy of rotation of the main shaft. The less you waste

4. Interaction of bodies

Interaction of bodies. Experience shows that when bodies (or systems of bodies) come closer, the nature of their behavior changes. Since these changes are reciprocal, the bodies are said to interact with each other. When separating bodies over very long distances
