Powered Moving
Do I need the same amount of energy to move an electric car is needed for gas Powered Car?
For example: if you did X amount of power to make a gasoline powered car to go 3.000 lbs 000-100 meters in 1320 would require the same amount of power to an electric car powered 000-100 feet to go in 1320?
The response to your question would probably indicate the utility would require more power, because today's designs practical electric cars are heavier than gas cars because 1 / 2 tons or less than the batteries they carry. In general, the question arises: What is the energy / power required to propel the vehicle? As for the conversion of "fuel" to power the propulsion of a conventional engine gas supplies about 19% of the potential energy contained in gasoline to the wheels, they generate more heat than horsepower product, a hybrid car is more as 30% efficiency, electric cars are rated 70% to 85% efficient, including loss of battery charge. The big question on electric cars that appears critical is the amount of pollution produced in the process of generating electricity. A Virginia driver with almost 100% coal electricity generated can contribute more CO2 than a conventional car, while a California driver using mostly the clean electric power sources is a network of low pollution. An electric motor is quite efficient, delivering 100% from a little touch of 0 rpm, high performance does not require the transmission of Tesla, du flat touch curve is the engine. An energy consumption figure I found, the fastest electric dragster, motorcycle consumption of electricity to run Killacycle 1 / 4 (and burn outs) is 0.6 kWh, a value of $ 0.07 for each run (gasoline equivalent of 2 oz) Here are some musings on alternative energy cars tt includes a chart of the efficiencies of the engine: http://hubpages.com/hub/The-Alternate-Energy-Car-Debate
