propulsion technologies

Propulsion technologies refer to the methods and systems that move vehicles, such as cars, airplanes, and rockets, from one place to another. Common types include internal combustion engines, which burn fuel to generate power, and electric motors, which use electricity stored in batteries. In aviation, jet engines compress air and mix it with fuel for thrust. Rockets utilize chemical propellants that produce a massive amount of gas, thrusting them into space. Emerging technologies include hybrids and renewable energy solutions, like solar or hydrogen fuel cells, aiming for more efficient and environmentally friendly transportation methods.
