Electric cars
For this assignment, you will create an approximately five-minute presentation consisting of several visually appealing, professional looking slides, accompanied by audiovisual presentation (using VoiceThread or a similar resource). You will submit the presentation to the discussion area for feedback and grading.
Here is the process:
All students must upload their presentation by Wednesday to the week 6 discussion area.
Students will create audiovisual comments of approximately one to two minutes each for two students in their group. These will be submitted as replies in the discussion area.
The presentation should include the following components:
A title slide
An introduction slide, outlining the purpose and flow of the presentation
Historical Timeline and Predecessor Assessment slide
Analysis of Impact slide(s)
Ethical Considerations slide
Conclusion
In-text citations and a references slide
Introduction
a) Electric cars are automobiles which are powered by the electric engine and electric energy.
b) These are propelled by using electric motor or electric DC batteries.
c) Main components are:Motor, controller,batteries,transmission,braking,steering
History
a) Electric car enjoyed popularity between late 19th century and early 20th century.
b) In early 20th century electric cars cover the maximum market which led the impact on the hydrocarbon market.
Need of Electric car
a) Preserve fossil fuel
b) Less maintenance and more efficient
c) Cleaner air
Working
The driver presses the accelerometer which sends the signal to controller, when fully accelerated voltage is supplied to motor. Two potentiometers are connected and when both of these potentiometer shows same deviation, voltage is supplied further and car moves.
Types of Electric cars
a) Plugin Hybrid
b) Hybrid
c) Battery
Advantage
a) cheaper to run
b) zero harmful emission
c) Recyclable batteries
d) Reduce noise pollution
e) can be connected to microgrid for feeding power
Conclusion
a) Since 1990s created new era in field of automobies
b) Increase the overall efficiency of the car
c) It restores the balance of ecosystem
d) Reduced carbon emission to 27%
