Sentences with phrase «because mechanical energy»

Dynamos are possible because mechanical energy — in this case the movement of the fluid in the outer core — can generate a magnetic field.

Not exact matches

The research is showing promise, and project co-ordinator, Dr. Emile Greenhalgh says the new material is revolutionary because «it does two things simultaneously — it carries a mechanical load and also stores electrical energy.»

«Our hypothesis was that the granular temperature can increase temporarily because of this, even though mechanical energy is lost with every collision.»

These short bursts of optimal loading also provide a high - intensity workout, stimulating the cardiovascular system, and leveraging the benefits referenced by Dr Doug McGuff, «The low resting heart rate and others markers for good health are not really something that's happened in the cardiovascular system, but because the energy producing part of the body like the mitochondria, and all the enzymes involved in the production of energy, are upregulated (due to quality of mechanical work with muscle) and become more powerful and efficient.

Because of the compression limitation required to prevent «engine knock», a typical gasoline engine can only deliver about 25 % efficiency — only 25 % of the BTU's in a gallon of gasoline are converted to mechanical energy that turns the wheels of the car, the other 75 % is lost in waste heat.

The study of these energy interconversions became known as «thermodynamics», because it was looking at how thermal energy and «dynamical» (or mechanical» energy were related.
