If i were to give a hybrid vehicle to a teenager, and they decided to add a bunch of high powered electrical equipment: 1. Does this utilize the same battery that the car motors use to propel the car. 2. Do gas-electric hybrids have alternators capable of generating electricity while the car is running? 3. What are the limitations of adding additional electrical accessories to the car? ie. DVD players, video screens, amplifiers, extra power outlets for laptops

I've read about companies that are trying to bring in battery powered vehicles. The plan is to install infrastructure around the country that includes: battery swapping stations and battery charging stations. -Battery swapping stations go in regular gas stations so you can just steer up and the robot does every the work below the car then you steer away. -Battery charging stations go in regular gas stations and at your parking space at work at home. The battery charging/swapping stations are powered by green energy like wind and solar. Is a green plan like this viable?

hi friends i am doing a project on hybrid vehicle in that i am using both engine and a motor to run a mopped vehicle... i am having a doubt in coupling motor and engine to receive the power output. i am using a speed control unit to control the motor speed as per engine speed so both the motor and engine runs at the same speed my question is HOW TO COUPLE BOTH ENGINE AND MOTOR TO receive FINAL POWER OUTPUT..... pls help me frnds.....

I'm trying to find a 1-person vehicle, either electric or gasoline-powered, that I can steer 6.5 miles to work. The highest speed limit is 45 mph, so if this golf-cart, Club Cart, or ATV thing could keep up with the flow of traffic, it would be great. The question is, are golf carts road-legal?

Do people steer around on golf carts in the Philippines like they do in the USA ? In the usa these are called Neighbourhood electric vehicles and I would like to know it there is any interest in the Philippines since they cause no pollution and they can run on solar power and they are very safe and do not travel too quick and also because there is 4 wheel steer very good on rough roads. http://www.tomberlin.net/#/section/home

I bought a 1991 Mazda MX-6 coupe and it has 4 wheel steering, 4 wheel disc brakes, 4 wheel ABS, electric "Moonroof", electric windows, air conditioning, turbo, intercooler and a 2.2L engine. Yet the badges on the car say nothing about being a MX-6 GT. Is it a GT? I went to Wikipedia and looked it up and here is what it had to say about the different models: "This generation was available in several trim levels, which differ depending on the market the vehicle was sold in. In the United States, the MX-6 was available in DX, LX, LE, and GT trim levels: •DX was the "bare bones" model, offering the base 110 hp/130 ft.lbf F2 2.2 L engine and few options, but most MX-6s sold in the U.S. were equipped with air conditioning. •LX added power windows, power locks, and power mirrors, as well as an optional electric moonroof. •LE was a rare "Leather Edition" model that the same as the LX and included leather seating surfaces and a leather wrapped shift knob on manual transmission-equipped vehicles. •GT included every options from the LX, but also stepped up to the F2T 2.2L turbocharged, intercooled engine, which put out 145 hp and 190 ft.lbf of torque delivering a significant performance boost. It also had 4 wheel disc brakes with ABS and 3 way adjustable suspension. In 1989, Mazda offered a special four wheel steering (commonly abbrieviated 4WS) option on MX-6 GTs destined for the U.S." So, if it does appear to be a GT, where can I go to receive the badges to stick on my car (Like the ones that came out with the GT)? If I possess a GT, I want to represent. Also, it says there that it has 3 way adjustable suspension. What does this mean and how can I find out if my car has it? Also, I live in Australia

Everyday i hear(or don't hear i guess) and look cars switching to run on electricity(whether it be through fuel cell or battery) instead of Internal combustion(any of the fossil fuels, gas, diesel, ethanol, N.G. etc.). My question to any of the economist out there is by the time I'm 50 , in 2040, will i still be able to steer my gasoline car that i adore so much at a semi-reasonable price. It gets about 27mpg highway and 22 city, although i live nowhere close a city and never commute to one. I simply can't stand electric vehicles, i need the rumble of an engine, that excellent noise that permeates the air, that sweet sweet odor of unburnt hydrocarbons(especially diesels!), the power peaks and dips, and the fun in tuning an engine for maximum performance! So every i want to know is could i steer it around as my only vehicle 30 years from now, will gas even still be available, will i have to convert it to run on ethanol( i would prefer not to for ethanol causes increased wear on the engine)? I will wait to chose a best answer, but i think Breath on the Wind almost hit it right on the head. Not only is it informative based directly on the question, it also creates a proactive solution to the problem. Now that i think of that, it does make sense. Although it might be more complicated than that such as the loss of the inherient efficency of mass manufatoring a good, and it could become a specialty item if it becomes too rarified. Overall i think it is a practical solution to the problem

My vehicle was repossessed. So, I made arrangements with the finical company if I paid off the loan (the full amount I owed on the car title loan) the next day by 9:00 am by money gram and call them back with the reference #, that I could pick up my vehicle at the repo company in two hours. Well that didn't happen. I called them numerous times for hours and 2:30 came and they called me back with the repo company info. Well I called the repo company and they told me I had to make appointment with them and they next available time was 9:00 am Monday and the lasted time I could pick up my truck was 4:00pm and I had to pay them storage fee of $200 which they said its $40 a day and they had my car since thursday night. Well I looked up their license and it said it was canceled and 10 of their employees were canceled and only I was good. What should I due I'm already broke for paying the finical company $3800.00 and I have to pay the repo company another $200 for storage fees, plus the police department $15 for the release. Which is coming out of my electric bill. I'll probably have no power this next month. Can anybody help out a single, full time college student, and a mom of five kids below the age 11 and the youngest being 1.

This is my second year with this hybrid...it has never really been through dead icy temperatures with me like this. It has been 10-20 degrees at night when I leave work (its fine during the day most of the time). I will look at my battery and it will have the usual 4-5 bar charge I arrive at work with; However, I ALWAYS let my car warm up 10-15 minutes before I steer it. It will not really have any power when I try to move it and I notice that the electric motor isnt helping the vehicle, and its not charging the batteries either..then every of the sudden my battery power will slowly plummet to 1 bar and then I will be forced to charge it through the usual coasting means. About 5 minutes after charging, it will just shoot up to completely full again...and I notice that (and this is only when its really icy out), before stopping, I can REALLY feel the breaks letting go if the car...Should I assume the worst and say my batteries are going, or could this be from the extreme icy and snow? Thanks! Also my MPG isnt that great...32-35 on the highway due to the extreme icy.

It seems to me that if you have an electric car that you plug in, it is (most likely) running off of coal, which powers most electricity grids. How is this better for the climate and for the environment in general?

Do they use electric motor & battery which is recharged by the wind turbine? or it just depend on wind? if it depends only on wind, would the shaft of the turbine's rotor steer the shaft of the rear wheels through pulley/gears ? or we just put a wind turbine on the vehicle and it will move if there is a wind?!!

is it feasible to charge the battery with wind turbine instead of solar panels. would i receive enough power from the wind to charge the battery? or the DC motor driving the car would consume every of the battery charge before it will receive charged from the wind turbine?? what about the wind powered cars?!! www.windturbineracer.com the cars move with only wind energy.why can't we convert this energy into electricity to steer the motor?!!

i need to put this information (below) in my possess words, BUT I'm currently studying for 3 midterms for tomorrow, plus more homework. if someone could please paraphrase this stuff it would be a HUGE help and another thing off my to-do list.: A vehicle's ignition system provides the first steps required to start the engine. The primary goal of the system is to ignite the fuel-air mixture so that the resulting energy can power the motor. A variety of ignition system designs have been used throughout the years. However, modern cars utilize an electric spark to initiate combustion. Modern car engine ignition systems consist of a distributor, ignition coil, spark plugs and spark plug wires. The entire system is connected to the engine's battery. The distributor is the most complex and integral component of the system, and includes a rotating cam, condenser, rotor and distributor cap. The ignition coil is the component that connects directly to the vehicle's battery and includes two transformer windings. The primary winding feeds into the distributor, while the secondary winding connects to the spark plugs. The distributor's cam rotates in unison with the engine's compression cycle. When enough energy has been created, the spinning cam opens a breaker, which causes a high-voltage jump in the ignition coil. This voltage surge is transported to the spark plugs, resulting in the necessary electric spark to start ignition. There are currently two types of automobile ignition systems in use: mechanically timed and electronic. They differ mainly in the way that the high-voltage surge is released to the spark plugs. Mechanically timed systems utilize a series of breaker points, while electronic systems use optical or light sensors. Electronic ignition systems are considered superior because they eliminate the possibility for mechanical wear and improve overall effectiveness. A car engines Ignition System with distributor type ignition systems can seem complex, but once simplified can be diagnosed with ease. Using the Diagram provided over you can look there are several different components. The most common component is the spark plug. If you do not have spark at the spark plug then you can backtrack from there. Use a new spark plug or spark tester to test for spark coming from the plug wire, if you do not look spark here, test for spark coming from the coil wire to the distributor. If these test ok, move on and look at the distributor cap and rotor for corrosion or damage. If these look ok, then you most likely have a failed ignition module. The ignition module is located below the distributor cap on GM vehicles and external on most other vehicles. Ignition module failure is the most common no spark symptom outside normal tune up maintenance. The ECM (engine control module) controls the engine ignition timing by advancing and retarding the primary trigger signal. In old cars a points, condenser and a vacuum advance unit performed this job. This ignition coil is a pulse-type it consists, in part, of two coils of wire. These wires are wrapped around two iron cores. Because this is a step-up transformer, the secondary coil has far more turns of wire than the primary coil. The secondary coil has several thousand turns of thin wire, while the primary coil has just a few hundred raps. This allows 40,000 volts or more of voltage to be generated by a car battery. This electrical signal is generated by the crankshaft position sensor (CKP), camshaft position sensor (CAS). The ECM calculates spark timing by using the computer system. The initial power supplied to the ignition system is generated from the battery. every vehicles use an alternator to recharge the battery during normal operation. A low battery can cause an engine not to start even if the engine is cranking over slowly. This is because the vehicle voltage has dropped below 12 volts. If any component of the ignition system is not functioning properly, it can cause an entire ignition system failure. Proper maintenance such as a tune up can help ensure that the vehicle's ignition system operates at peak performance. Most four-stroke engines have used a mechanically timed electrical ignition system. The heart of the system is the distributor. The distributor contains a rotating cam driven by the engine's steer, a set of breaker points, a condenser, a rotor and a distributor cap. External to the distributor is the ignition coil, the spark plugs and wires linking the distributor to the spark plugs and ignition coil. The system is powered by a guide-acid battery, which is charged by the car's electrical system using a dynamo or alternator. The engine operates contact breaker points, which interrupt the current to an induction coil (known as the ignition coil). The ignition coil consists of two transformer windings sharing a common magnetic core—the primary and secondary windings. An alternating current in the primary i

alright i got a good story for you honda guys.. (even though i hate you lol jk you'll receive a kick out of this) Yesterday this highschool kid brings his civic in to my store.. he bought a civic thats already been modified.. it was a early 90s civic looked in good condition what you might call JDM it had a 2.4l swap with a turbo set up, however the turbo wasn't a front mount or mid mount.. it was a rear mount turbo.. good bye muffler hello turbo and tubing.. so this kid brings his civic in saying it's quick but he wants to make it sound faster.. he says he loves the whistle of the muffler (lmao) it has on it but wants it to roar when he races it.. his solution? and electric cutout he brought in and bought off ebay.. after trying to tell him it would make him lose power this that and the other he's saying i know nothing this that and the other.. morale of the story.. cease selling your mod'd civics to stupid kids.. now let me hear some of your ridiculous stories.. what is the stupidest "mod" you've seen on a vehicle??

I am making plans for building an electric car. I do not want to receive electrecuted when I touch the car. The only problem is the biggest GFCI circuit breakers (from now on reffered to as GFCB) are 50 amps and I need a 150 amp circuit (for 600V, even though I can't find 600V GFCBs). If I wire three GFCBs in parralel to provide power to one thing (the motor) will it work? If not what are other options (don't be a smarta*s and say steer an IC vehicle)? Thank you very much. Oh and we are talking AC here Can I wire the circuit in such a way that if a wire goes loose, a normal cicuit breaker will trip? Because I am finding a lot of normal circuit breakers rated at 150amps or more and 600V Actually, I changed my mind. 460V So, if I use the 3 circuit breakers, the amperage will be distributed evenly? I don't care about the voltage really, I can play with that later. What makes you think that I will use 400 amps to charge my car? 400A*460V=184 kW. I don't need to charge my car in half an hour! I am planning on using something like a NEMA L15 or L16 plug and socket. Which means 50 amps at most, and not even that much!

Ok, about two months ago, my son (two years old) discovered the "Mighty Machines" DVD's. It's a pack of movies, one's about construction vehicles, one's about airplanes, one's about farm equipment, etc. http://www.amazon.com/Mighty-Machines-Power-Pack/dp/B0016PWWRC Anyways - He really loves these movies. REALLY loves them. However, he'll watch two minutes of one of them and then start asking me to switch the DVD to a different one. (Like take the dump truck one out and put in the airplane one.) And when I tell him no, he throws a MAJOR hissy fit. I'll receive him calmed down, and he'll start watching it again, and then he wants to switch them again. I'll tell him no, and here comes the hissy fit again - basically a vicious circle. So, one day I snuck in and got the movies and put them up. He's been asking for them and I didn't know what to say, so I told him the Electric Man took them (Long story short, our power went out for three days during a snow storm a few weeks ago and I told him it was every the Electric Man's fault, lol). He's STILL talking about these movies. This morning on our ride in to work, he was staring out the window and I asked him what he was looking at and he said "Da Woods. Mean ol' Electwic Man in da woods got my dump truck mobie". That made me feel like a piece of crap mom.... But I know if I tug those movies out again, he's going to go right back to the same things he was doing before. What would you do in this situation? Would you receive the movies out? Would you just receive ONE of them out and tell him that's every you have? Would you leave the situation alone until he gets a little older? Rosie! PERFECT! And my son does watch full DVD's without asking to switch them... He may not actually sit and watch the whole thing, but he'll play and watch and won't ask me to switch movies every 5 minutes with other movies (like Cars, for example). And... (as usual) - No thumb downs from me.

I'm interested in purchasing an electric bicycle but I read the following on wikipedia: Electric Bicycles in Hawaii are considered a Illegal motorized vehicle "Bicycle" [4] means every vehicle "propelled solely by human power" upon which any person may ride, having two tandem wheels, and including any vehicle generally recognized as a bicycle though equipped with two front or two rear wheels except a toy bicycle. [43] However.... they have at least 10 different stores dedicated to selling electric bicycles and I look people riding around with them every the time, and it there was a new story regarding one of the stores promoting the use of electric bikes/scooters as alternate transportation. Any help would be nice. Specific as in how? I'm just wondering if I can ride an electric bicycle in the state of hawaii legally, like I said they have many dealers here and I look everyone riding them plus you can rent them, just regular bicycles with motors (max speed is like 15-20mph), however everyone claims they are illegal.

In order to charge the battery of an electric vehicle like the Volt, you must plug the car into the wall outlet. Doesn't the power plant pollute the environment? I read that the car battery manufacturing facilities heavily pollute.

There seems to be a little secret that no one is talking about. It's the move to electric energy vehicles. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204348804574402673476299290.html Of course the "hybrids" rely on gasoline engines to generate electricity (and pollution) but the purely electric vehicles require a battery charge. That charged comes from our electric grid. And that electricity is generated by coal fired plants for the majority of America's energy. Obama promised to bankrupt the coal plants. look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hdi4onAQBWQ With cap and trade, the next least costly way to generate electricity is with natural gas. By doing so, it drives up the cost of natural gas and increases our heating bills tremendously. Heating oil is already going to consume 2% of its power from soybeans which will further strain domestic crop production for food and the alternative of waste materials makes that tiny 2% increase heating oil costs 30% to 50%. The truth is that we need nuclear energy plants desperately. While the relax of the world hasn't been hampered by the laws the Democrats imposed on Nuclear Plant regulations, we have fell way behind the relax of the world. 80% of France's electrical energy is derived from Nuclear power plants while only 19% of US relies on nuclear energy. Obama's solution is a federal loan guarantees to companies going through the regulation process. IOW, if they don't make it through the regulation process Uncle Sam picks up the cost of the work they have done up until that point. While many think there were laws against nuclear power plants that was not the case. After 3 mile island the Democrats made regulations so stiff that no company was willing to risk an investment to only find out they couldn't pass the regulations. This is why we haven't had a new nuclear plant in 30 years. It worked the same way Obama is going to bankrupt the coal plants he described in his video over. By using a loan, at any point congress decides to avoid nuclear energy they can simply enforce their regulations, the company will default on their loan and the government will pick up the tab. No one is the wiser and most likely the news will simply say, "ABC Corporation pulled out of the Nuclear Plant deal." So far Obama has only offered $8 Billion in loans for two plants and then ironically canceled the waste dump close Las Vegas by withdrawing the Energy Department's license application for the proposed dump. These mixed messages are far from Nuclear power plant development, when Senator Graham proposed sufficient loans to build 60 additional nuclear reactors and while earlier the Lieberman-led nuclear bill included a $100 billion boost for the federal loan guarantee program, as well as additional regulatory risk insurance. ==== http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704107204574473724099542430.html =========== Lincoln6, receive a clue. Every gas well is drilled, contained and shipped by an oil company. In fact they have to be drilled much deeper. Oil companies will be the "energy" companies of the future, regardless the fuel. Just like Nikon not going out of business when 35MM film died. Shell has a number of "true" solar factories, the latest one being a factory that can produce 1 GigaWatt of Solar Panels every year... power of a tiny nuclear power plant. Capitalism is what generates the future... Socialism, such as Obama delivers doesn't have enough money or momentum. They simply are throwing money at the solar companies that are generating heat to power steam to power generators. Terribly inefficient and without a future. Shell has already moved solar cells two magnitudes beyond the common silicon cells, and one magnitude beyond cadmium telluride... each magnitude steps are considerably cheaper to make as well. Obama is just creating busy work since capitalism drives technology and he knows it... he would just be reinventing the wheel and having his socialism compete with the big oil companies that isn't sustainable. But guess what... Shell will still produce the lubricants that Obama will need with his "steam machine" but they are not so stupid to follow that path as they created electricity directly from solar energy.

Locomotive One thinks of the word “Locomotive” as a noun meaning a vehicle with an Internal Combustion Engine that pulls or pushes cars on rail road tracks. In 1829 that term was “coined” therefore leading to the continued thought that every the guide cars on a “Train” are a Locomotive. Actually the term comes from the Latin word(s), Loco and motivus, "causing motion", which means to move, such as to steer one’s actively. Most Locomotives use Diesel as a fuel; hence the “Diesel-Electric”. Which brings me to the Diesel - Electric Locomotive that powers passenger trains. Unlike “Freight trains” in which the Locomotive pulls or pushers the cars, the passenger train Locomotives generate electricity, (power/ “energy”), that powers every individual car which has its possess motor. According to “Woody's Law of Motion”, this allows the smooth “take-off” of every the cars at one time; therefore avoiding any “jerks”. Also some of the modern train cars utilize the principle of “Woody’s Law” and have transmissions.

Consider that our maritime fleet produces more pollution than our cars. BONUS: why dont we have plug in electric cars, considering they now have just as good range as gas powered vehicles?

i am planning to make a series hybrid electric vehicle , i just am confused as how the generator will be wired to the batteries so that it will charge them and how the batteries will power the car at the same time while getting charged from the generator basically where can i find a detailed wiring diagram for making a series hybrid car , more detailed the better

I am about to receive one in the mail and I want more power to my vehicle since they don't offer a bolt on supercharger or turbo. Does it work, does anyone have it on currently, do you feel anything? What do you think about the new Super ERAM?

Here is my persuasive essay on why we should start adopting the ideas and uses of electric cars. Tell em what you think. Sorry it long but hey, i feel like i did good. If there are any questions or mis understandings, just tell me. Thanks Essay: If you could steer on the power of the sun, would you? Would you only pay two cents per mile? And would you help the environment for the future to arrive? I would, and so would you! every of these questions are answered with the electric car. Nearly every household in America owns one car that runs on gasoline and pollutes the atmosphere. We, need to start adopting the ideas and uses of electric cars into our lives; which is to change your gasoline guzzler into a clean, green, electrifying machine! Nissan with the Leaf and Chevy with the Volt are just two E.V.’s to be manufactured for the U.S. in 2010. With groups like “Plug in America” and documentaries such as “Who Killed the Electric Car?”, activists are taking a stand for what’s right! Us American adore oil, but with our solar cell technology, we can change our dirty habits and make the switch to green and clean electric vehicles that run on renewable energy! Electric Vehicles stretch the boundaries of how inexpensive transportation can be. These alternatives are cheaper to keep running when compared to the common gasoline powered cars. For example, when an electric car is up against a 20mpg gas car with gasoline costing $3 per gallon, you spend $0.15 for every mile that you steer. On the other hand, with electricity being the alternative fuel, we pay in kilowatt hours, which would total to about two cents per mile. Over the long run, this is a he amount of savings. Electric cars are cheaper to fuel, but they are also cheaper to maintain. E.V.’s only have one moving part, the motor. No transmissions, gears, sparks or explosions are taking place “below the hood”. No lubricant is needed, so no oil spills to clean up! This would then mean that it does not have to be taken to the store as much because almost nothing needs to be changed! These cars are much cheaper to maintain than gasoline cars and stay much cleaner! Although electric cars are more expensive to buy from a dealership, they outperform regular petrol cars. They age much slower, and the cars motor never dies because of the so little moving parts inside. But eventually after a decade, your lithium ion batteries start to drain out and lose charge. But instead of buying a new car every couple of years, you just replace the batteries, and they are much cheaper than a new car. Currently, when you purchase a zero emission car in the United States, which E.V.’s are, you can receive up to a $7,500 rebate from the government! In the long run, with the amount of money that you keep on the cost or operation and maintenance for E.V.’s, you would keep enough money to pay for the car its self! And the best part is, it’s not science fiction, we have the electric alternative technology here today! We have to go electric, it’s the easiest and most reliable way of alternative transportation. Other options include ethanol, biodiesel, and the most popular, Hydrogen. Yes, these are great way, but they are not readily available to us, unlike electricity. Also, it would cost way more to install hydrogen fueling stations and biodiesel pumps around America instead of electrical outlets. When compared to the most popular other option, hydrogen fuel cells, electric cars win by a long shot, the average hydrogen fuel cell car costs about one million dollars and the technology is just not there yet. We’ve mastered the electric vehicle with over 300 miles to a charge and speed over 100mph, and we should start using it! We need an alternative, and electric is clearly the matter of choice to reduce our dependence on both foreign and domestic oil. As President George W. Bush stated, “America is addicted to oil,” and we need to receive rid of our nasty habits. We can start by changing our cars and what they require to run on. Instead of gasoline, we can use electricity, stored in batteries. With battery technology booming, we can extend our ranges to a few hundred mile to a charge! Although the average American only drives about 90 miles per day. Electric cars are said to have a whopping fuel economy of 188 mpg, and are rated as one of the most efficient type of vehicles on the road. They do not waste power when your car is not moving or stuck at a red light , unlike gasoline cars that constantly burn gas. They are only operated when necessary, which saves you power and money! Some have realized the benefits of E.V.’s and how huge they are! Such as in Israel, where they are taking on project “Better Place”, and within a decade, every cars on the Israeli roads will run on electricity, produced from clean and green renewable energy sources! “The Environmental benefits of E.V.’s are dubious,” stated a California Newspaper in 2003 when GM was about to end their line for the every electric EV1

by the way about 50% of the power EV use for power comes from COAL!

White home provides funding for advanced manufacturing technologies Updated: Friday, December 4th, 2009 | By Louis Jacobson It goes by a different name, but the White home on Aug. 5, 2009, announced $2.4 billion in high-tech manufacturing grants that sound a lot like the "Advanced Manufacturing Fund" Barack Obama promised during the campaign. The grants are geared toward keeping American companies at the forefront of emerging manufacturing technologies. The 48 grants announced in August, which were authorized below the economic stimulus package passed in February, will fund "the manufacturing and deployment of electric vehicles, batteries and components" in the United States, according to the White home. The winners were selected through "a highly competitive process by the Department of Energy" and represent "the single largest investment in advanced battery technology for hybrid and electric-steer vehicles ever made." The federal funds must be matched on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the recipients. The grants include $1.5 billion for making batteries, battery components and expanding battery recycling capacity; $500 million for electric steer components for vehicles, including electric motors, power electronics and other steer train components; and $400 million to purchase thousands of plug-in hybrid and every-electric vehicles for test demonstrations, deployment, evaluation, and infrastructure installation, as well as work force training to support the shift to electric transportation systems. We consider this a Promise Kept.

You're the CEO of a courier company, and you decide to select an electric car for your fleet of vehicles. A particular car has a mass of 1500 kg and is powered by 26 12-V batteries connected in series, for a total of 312 V. Batteries are rated at 100 ampere-hours, which means they can deliver 100 A for 1 h, 1 A for 100 h, or any combination that equals 100 A. h. When the batteries are connected in series, the charge output of every the batteries is the same as one battery-in this case 100 A. h. The motor is 85% efficient in converting electrical energy to mechanical energy in the steer wheels. A test report says the car can climb a 13 degree slope at a speed of 40 km/h. Assuming the batteries are fully charged, how long can the car maintain this speed at that angle? I have no clue on how to do this problem any help is appreciated

thinking about the current available hybrid options regarding electric vehicles, I look where you can simply plug your vehicle into a special receptacle and charge the vehicle's battery(ies) at your home. I was wondering how much extra the bill goes up each month? In the US. of course, not including modified homes with wind or solar abilities, just a plain ordinary home. thinking about the current available hybrid options regarding electric vehicles, I look where you can simply plug your vehicle into a special receptacle and charge the vehicle's battery(ies) at your home. I was wondering how much extra the bill goes up each month? In the US. It looks like the replacement costs for these batteries will be around $3,000- $6,000 USD and replaced every 4 - 6 years optimally. Along with the increased electrical cost of charging the batteries, I'm just wondering how much extra this is going to cost.. of course, not including modified homes with wind or solar abilities, just a plain ordinary home. I've done some research on wikipedia and have even read a current realease regarding electric/hyrbid cars.. http://www.wired.com/autopia/2010/01/batteries-costs-report/ PLEASE- no political opinions- email mail me instead -johncthomasii@Yahoo.com- thanks!!

Okies, I am building a vehicle for Flint's annual "back to bricks". Four days of people showing off their hotrods. But I do not have money, instead I have loads of electronics I have been collecting from devices found in trash and such. I have the vehicle built and am currently working on the lighting, and I thought I understood fluorescent bulbs(stick style with two prongs at each end)but I was wrong. I have two sharper image 11-in-1 emergency devices that have been installed in the vehicle, but one of them quit working AHHHHHH! Each device has two fluorescent fixtures for the lantern that use the very common F4T5D 5watt bulbs. And most of the other lanterns on the market use these bulbs. On each of the sharper image devices I installed is a switch that turns the left fluorescent on, or both, or the right. So I have a grand total of FOUR 5watt fluorescent fixtures that are waterproof and simply perfect for the exterior of the vehicle, with the REAR left and right fixtures controlled and powered by the WORKING sharper image device. But now that the second sharper image fixture broke, I must find another method for powering the front left and right fixtures. I don't have any other lanterns to use but I do have many single bulb fluorescent fixtures. I have a 15watt single bulb fixture that I want to use to power the two 5watt bulbs(which total 10watts) I thought I could figure out the configuration, but failed,.... the 5 watt bulbs have the standard two prongs at each end, but both the prongs on one side are the positive and both the prongs on the other side are connected to the negative in the sharper image fixtures,.... this is way different than the way the single bulb fixture is powered,..... it uses a ballast and a button that needs to be held down for a few seconds then released for the single bulb to turn on. I rigged up a single 5watt bulb to the 15watt fixture and it worked fine, but I could not receive two 5watt bulbs to turn on using the 15watt fixture, and I tried many configurations,.... one of the 5watters would always arrive on, but not both,... in some configurations I got a bit of light from the second bulb, and sometimes an entire half of the second bulb would shine perfectly. the best I could do is receive 1.5 bulbs lit,... meaning one bulb fully lit with the other with only half of it lit, but the lit half was as bright as normal,... very odd. These devices have a B/W TV also that is totally useless which is why they are difficult to receive, and none are on ebay. I really want to know how to receive these bulbs to work in these particular sharper image fixtures cuz they are perfect for my vehicle's exterior! And every the bulbs I worked with do work cuz I check them often. This vehicle will do everything a home can do, tho it is as wide as a standard sidewalk, can go where a car can't. Everything will be powered by a high amp gasoline generator with battery backup for emergencies. Going to have many exterior lights every over the body and TV, warm running water, heat and air conditioning, PA system, many speakers, dual mic's, bug repeller, two B/W tv's for the fake headlights with the station being broadcast via a vcr in the cabin sending a local signal of my choosing, karaoke, electric motor for up to 40mph and a backup tractor motor capable of 10mph, both can be used together for severe inclines, many radios, PC and a separate dvd player so every media is supported, cassette recorders, amplifiers, six car batteries, ten tires so I can afford to loose a few. This vehicle was supposed to float so it could be taken into lakes and rivers, but I am worried there will be a heavy spot and the vehicle will tilt too much causing water to go into bad places. I have pictures if anyone is interested tho I don't know how to post them for yahoo answers Sorrie if I was over or below descriptive or insanely confusing. Luckily I have five months before I need this vehicle finished and I will send you pictures when its finished. Thankies for your time!

i adore remote control vehicles! i have a gas R/C airplane, and a kyosho gas R/C heli. but this time im going with something a little different..... something a little more..... custom. so im buying 3/16 steel and im going to weld it together with the specs of a 1/16 scale German elefant tank. i did the math, and the metal alone should put me at 38 pounds (im trying to lighten her up as much as possible by going with billet aluminum wheels). every of this will be turned on my possess lathe and clip with my possess grinders. my problem is that my history is with gas engines, and for the controlability i want with the tank i need to go electric. so with no gear reduction, what nice of power motor would i need to buy? i know that i am going to buy 2 (1 for each side) and i want it to have lots of power at any speed. are there any engines out there (for below $50 each) that have that nice of power? or am i going to have to buy some brass cogs? i prefer brushless but really sick take any motor. this is the only website i found with tiny enough motors (that are affordable): www.hobbypartz.com any other trusted hobby site will be accepted as well, any and every help is very much appreciated thanks.

Ok, today i became the proud owner of a 2002 Fiat Punto 1.2 Active 8v, and i was just wondering what comes as standard, like Power Steering, ABS, Electric Mirrors etc. Could someone tell me? god robert e lee, if you aint gonna give productive feedback, fuck off.
