An electromagnetic crane is a crane that makes use of the link between electricity and magnetism to produce the force required to lift heavy objects. The link between electricity and magnetism is a great topic for science projects, and even if a full electric crane project is a bit too hands...
One solution is the electromagnetic rail gun, or rail gun for short. Using a magnetic field powered by electricity, a rail gun can accelerate a projectile up to 52,493 feet (16,000 meters) per second. And while current Navy guns have a maximum range of 12 miles, rail guns can hit a...
It may seem impossible to make a 600-foot long ship invisible to the enemy, but that's one of the DDG 1000's most important requirements. That means the ship will need to dampen engine noise and reduce the amount of electromagnetic energy (radar and infrared, for example) that it reflect...
Simply put, generators work by converting mechanical energy into electrical energy using an engine, alternator and an outside fuel source. Modern generators work on the principle ofelectromagnetic induction, a term coined by Michael Faraday when he discovered that a conductor moving in a magnetic fie...
Avoid twisting while lifting and keep the weight close to your body. Ask for help when you need it and wait for help when you have to. If you aren’t sure whether you can lift something alone, err on the side of caution. Use a hoist or crane to lift heavy equipment if necessary. ...
Step 3:The spinning action creates a voltage in the magnetic field between the two parts of the alternator, therotorand thestator.This is called electromagnetic induction. Step 4:Power is produced when the stator is connected to a load, which causes the flow of electricity. ...
Models of the ice sheet's dynamic behavior indicate a potential for greatly accelerated ice loss as ocean-driven melting at the Thwaites Glacier grounding zone and nearby areas leads to thinning, faster flow, and retreat. A complete retreat of the Thwaites Glacier basin would raise global sea ...
rough idea of the size and weight of the drone you plan on building. I’ll walk you through the process of determining motor size based on the drone you are trying to build, but if you’re focusing on building a 5″ FPV drone, feel free to skip ahead to the “Motor Size” section...
