Does electrical generators contain magnets?I mean those of huge size also.

Question #5:

Why does an edgar cayce violet ray device work for so many mental problems?

the claims
For people with depression I advocate using this over the spinal area and back – how often would vary from person to person but I feel but somewhere between 1-3 times per week should be a good starting point. More for people deeply affected. Duration as a starting point around 15-20 mins.
This is not an ultra violet lamp of any sorts, but a high frequency generator coupled to a glass wand
Even the great Edgar Cayce recommended this device in hundreds of readings for all sorts of complaints. Edgar Cayce said that the Violet Ray stimulates the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal nervous system and it creates a balance. Here are some testimonies from other therapists
I gave them the Violet Ray up and down both sides of the spine, three times at a slow to moderate pace. Both had very unhappy childhood‘s. Their behaviour improved from then on and they appear to be still stable. Each needed two treatments only. I believe it would help children with behavioural problems.
Treat the body as in figure 8 that is put the applicator under the right arm pit the first day for 10 mins. Then under left knee the next day, under left armpit the next day then under right knee the next day, then repeat.
Apparently these are the same locations where the lymph system comes to the surface.
Edgar Cayce states that the violet ray calms the nerves. It is also used for blindness and severe headaches, Rheumatism, Lesions, ears and deafness, and after effects of surgery.
The violet ray was applied to various different places on the body including the eyes, throat spine, arm pits, base of the brain, upper broncials, thyroids even a rectal applicator to treat hemorrhoids and the feet and of course the scalp. Some other applications
followed over the forty odd years – violet ray treatments directly on the spine to stimulate the superficial circulation and revitalise giving more activity to the whole of the respiratory system.
The violet ray gives incentives to the nerve centres to be rejuvenated again .The ozone produced from the machine would be most beneficial to the body as well.
Like voltage is life or healing and makes resistance in the system. The violet ray should be applied to the feet and lower limbs along the sciatic nerve and across the sacral and in the plexus of the cervical and upper dorsal. Do this each evening and in 5-6 weeks the body will be more active mentally and physically. This machine is still being used to treat acne and to increase circulation in the scalp. There are also reports of increased hair growth or baldness.
Another use of the machine was following the packs of salts, when the skin has been opened, or the pores, and the centres along the cerebro-spinal system are ready for response to this low form of electrical vibration, this will enliven not only the nerve centres of the cerebro-spinal and sympathetic system, but also cleansing the blood stream itself.
This device can be used for many other problems as well; many people who have problems with the spine pain, arthritis, carpal tunnel, have got relief.
I have noticed immediate relief and a feeling of betterment very quickly. Some therapists will have these but I recommend owning one yourself as they can be bought quite cheaply.

Cayce said that the Violet Ray stimulates the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal nervous system and it creates a balance.
In one reading, on possession, Edgar Cayce said that it will drive out negative earth bound entities. These are entities that try to stop you changing the way you think. Attempt to stop you from growing
,everyone with depression should use one regularly.
Decades ago, physicians used this device for every imaginable health problem. Today, the FDA approves the Violet Ray‘s use specifically for various skin and scalp conditions, such as reducing wrinkles, eliminating acne, fighting gray hair, eradicating dandruff, and treating baldness.
This device intensifies fresh blood circulation. The extra flow of blood equalizes the circulation in crowded areas, helping heal bruised and damaged tissue.
Make contact with the glass bulb before turning the appliance on. In other words, place the glass bulb on the skin and then turn it on. Otherwise you will receive an unpleasant tingling upon contact with the skin. Turn the appliance o
ff before removing it from the skin. Again this will prevent the unpleasant tingling.
No person with a pacemaker should be allowed near a Violet Ray machine, the effects could be fatal. Violet Ray
devices can and will interfere with nearby electronics.

Dr frank if you think that these claims are false ,please quote your sources .Just casting aspersions without basis derives from the activity of a primitive mind .
Primitive thinking .
There is evidence of their validity from the edgar cayce foundation and i can verify from my personal experiences of some very good effects from the use of the violet ray.

Question #9:

How many electrical generators does a 100 MW power plant require?

What is the present highest capacity of an electrical generator used in a power plant? What is the cost of such an electrical generator?

Question #10:

Where can I get a low friction electric generator?

I need an electric generator to produce about 0.35 volts for 1.5-2 seconds

The electric generator will be driven by a pendulum, falling due to gravity.

The pendulum weights no more than a few grams, and is about 1 inch long.

It doesnt matter to me how much current the generator produces, 1.5 mA will be fine. But it must produce 0.3-0.35 volts over the time that the pendulum is driving the generator (while it is falling)... that will be about 1.5-2 seconds.

I want the generator to be as low friction as possible, so the pendulum can rotate as far as possible around in a circle, then the pendulum will simply fall back down and will stop producing electricity. It is essentially turning potential energy into kinetic energy into electrical energy.

Does anyone know where I could get such a electric motor or generator that would accomplish this?! Thanks for your help!!
Is this enough information for you, billrussell42?!?
Also, this is DC electricity im working with... but an AC motor will be ok too I think.

Question #11:

since the interior of mars has cooled and mars has lost it's protective magnetosphere could one be made in space between the sun and the planet by an artificial means say by wires configured in some sort of web strung between electrical generators/transformers to produce a Field or is it impossible? if it was possible would mar's regenerate itself into a more hospitable planet? one with water and oxygen?

Question #12:

What tradesman can fix our generator?

Who do I call to look at my generator?
We have a stationary generator next to our home that automatically goes on when the electrical power is cut (usually during a storm when a fallen tree breaks the overhead electrical line), this last time it did not go on as it usually does....so who do we call to look at it? We did not purchase it, it came with the house when we bought it.

Question #13:

What is the name of this Electrical Circuit?

It's a Machine, so it go's like this

-You start off with a battery powering a motor
-Then the Motor moves a generator
-The generator while moving greats electricity
-That electricity is connected to the Motor moving the generator
-Then you disconnect the Battery
-Then the motor powers the Generator and the Generator powers the motor back again, and it go's on in a cycle
-What is this Machine or electrical circuit called, have you ever heard of this idea???

Question #15:

Generating free electricity from radio waves?

I watched this video and I read the schematic of what is called and AVE Generator.
Here is the Youtube link Click Here !

I'm 16 and I know quite a bit about schematics and things other electrical engineers know, and my personal conclusion is that this is fake.
I think its fake because the two capacitors on the right are labeled positive and negative but yet, the left 2 have no polarity.
If anyone is interested in seeing the schematic, its at the end of the video.
I was thinking about putting it together.
If you think its fake please tell me why?
It looks very sketchy to me.

Question #16:

Can you feed into your household electrical system from a solar-cell array?

Without permission from the power company? I know it's probably illegal, but Arkansas has the worst rules regarding this and it's not worth it to do it legally because they make you pay for a special meter, plus additional monthly charges, and then they pay you almost nothing for any power you send back to the grid. So it's pretty clear that they don't want you to do it. What I would like to do is set up PV solar cells to produce about 1 kW max, then just hook this into my system in parallel. This will (I think) offset some of my consumption during the day, and also give me something to run my refrigerator, freezer, and well pump (one at a time) when the power goes out, which it frequently does in this remote location.
I am also a little worried about undervoltage on these appliances. Will I need UV protection breakers for them? (expensive) And what happens if I am not consuming enough of the solar production? Will something burn out, or will voltage go too high? I know how voltage regulators work on mechanical generators, but have no idea what is going on with solar panels.
Yeah, I am an engineer so don't assume that I'm stupid. I am just ignorant about solar cells and electronic power inverters.
OK, this really helps. I really wanted to avoid having a battery bank though, because it's expensive and troublesome to maintain. I may be better off to just get a small gasoline-powered generator for emergencies.
I hadn't considered synchronization, as the power supply is only single-phase 220v. I now see, however, that there would be a frequency difference between my output and true sinusoidal 60 hz power. (I'm familiar with synchronization of 3 phase power systems, but not this.) Thanks, guys.

Question #17:

Energy...Current...Voltage and Time..help please?

1. A domestic light bulb uses 230V to run a 60W bulb for 2 hours.
a) What current flows through the bulb during this time?
b) Calculate the energy the bulb uses during the 2hour period.

2. A van der Graff generator builds up a charge of 0.05C and a potential difference (voltage) of 10000V. When it makes contact with an earthed rod it discharges all of its electrical energy in 0.1s.
a) Calculate the average current during the discharge.
b) Calculate the energy that has been discharged through the rod.

Please show all methods and try explaining as best as you can because im having a little trouble with this section....IT WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU COULD HELP:) Thanks

Question #18:

what kind of system are the generator and distribution transformers?

electrical system?
generating system?
power system?
these generator and transformers are located in the school.

Question #19:

how generator can make electrical energy from mechanical energy to electrical energy?

give me more details about mechanical energy to electrical energy based on generator

Question #20:

Realistic usage of all-solar system?

I'm thinking about buying this nice property with a one-room loft cabin for summer/getaways.. awesome in every respect except the fact that there's no electrical service for miles around. The electric company said it'll be $20,000 to get grid power over there, in addition to monthly bills.

Let's say I have a refrigerator, desktop computer, lights, water pump (not always on), washing machine (not always on), and some fans for hot days.

How much wattage worth of solar panels, and what wattage of inverter, would I need to comfortably power it? I'll have a generator that I can use, say, once a week to power the heavier stuff, but I'll be using the rest of it daily.
