  2. Battery charger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_charger

    A battery charger, recharger, or simply charger, [1] [2] is a device that stores energy in an electric battery by running current through it. The charging protocol—how much voltage and current, for how long and what to do when charging is complete—depends on the size and type of the battery being charged.

  3. Induction generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

    An induction generator produces electrical power when its rotor is turned faster than the synchronous speed. For a four-pole motor (two pairs of poles on stator) powered by a 60 Hz source, the synchronous speed is 1800 rotations per minute (rpm) and 1500 RPM powered at 50 Hz. The motor always turns slightly slower than the synchronous speed.

  4. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    On the other hand, if the motor is driven as a generator, the no-load voltage between terminals is perfectly proportional to the RPM and true to the of the motor/generator. The terms K e {\displaystyle K_{\text{e}}} , [ 2 ] K b {\displaystyle K_{\text{b}}} are also used, [ 4 ] as are the terms back EMF constant , [ 5 ] [ 6 ] or the generic ...

  5. Power-to-weight ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-to-weight_ratio

    Battery discharge profiles are often described in terms of a factor of battery capacity. For example, a battery with a nominal capacity quoted in ampere-hours (Ah) at a C/10 rated discharge current (derived in amperes) may safely provide a higher discharge current – and therefore higher power-to-weight ratio – but only with a lower energy ...

  6. Orders of magnitude (speed) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(speed)

    To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following list describes various speed levels between approximately 2.2 × 10 −18 m/s and 3.0 × 10 8 m/s (the speed of light). Values in bold are exact.

  7. What happens if you go 10 mph over the speed limit? - AOL

    www.aol.com/drive-10-mph-over-speed-110000027.html

    10-14 MPH: $100. 14-19 MPH: $125. 19-24 MPH: $150. 24-34 MPH: $500. If you are driving faster than 85 mph, you’ll probably be getting a super speeder ticket which will cost around $200, plus ...

  8. Speed of electricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_electricity

    The speed at which energy or signals travel down a cable is actually the speed of the electromagnetic wave traveling along (guided by) the cable. I.e., a cable is a form of a waveguide. The propagation of the wave is affected by the interaction with the material(s) in and surrounding the cable, caused by the presence of electric charge carriers ...
