What size of electric motor can carry someone?

Question by umadbro: What size of electric motor can carry someone?
Whats the smallest motor that can probably move someone, for instance 49cc gas motor can move the bike and a person on it.

Can 1hp or 3 hp electric engine have enough power to move someone? Not on a bike necessarily


Best answer:

Answer by Samuel
Your question is to vague. Even the smallest motor could move a person if geared correctly, although very slowly.
1hp = 735watts. So if you can pick an application that needs a 1hp gas engine then an electric motor that uses approximately 735watts will be roughly equivalent. Not counting friction and resistances of coarse.

Would it be possible for someone in a wheelchair (electric scooter by Amigo) to travel to Orlando by plane?

Question by debeyhaber: Would it be possible for someone in a wheelchair (electric scooter by Amigo) to travel to Orlando by plane?
I want to take my family to Disney World. I use this electric wheelchair (scooter) and I wonder if I could take it with me. I think it would be hard for my wife to push me around the parks in a conventional wheelchair. Do the airlines take this kind of chairs? Are the buses that take you from the airport to Disney equiped to take wheelchairs?

Answer by webjnke1
Yes the buses at Disney are equipped for that. Disney in general is very well set up for wheelchairs. I wouldn't think the airlines would be much trouble either. Also if you stay at one of Disney hotels, a bus will take you from the hotel to the parks. We never used our car the whole 5 days we were there.

Is it rude for someone in a electric wheelchair to run my feet over?

Question by Hugh: Is it rude for someone in a electric wheelchair to run my feet over?
I feel sorry for handicapped people who are in a wheelchair but sometimes when I am walking by them or if I am on the bus, they would run my feet over with the electric wheelchair and not watch where they are going!!!!! So is that still rude of them?! I don’t care if they are in a wheelchair and handicapped or not, that doesn’t give them the right to not watch what they are doing?! Its called having manners.

Perhaps they did not realise that they run over your feet. Next time try and dodge them. If they did it intentionally then its bad karma on them.
