Pneumatic motor success with pneumatic motors in the locomotive industry. In 1911 he designed a pneumatic locomotive and sold the patent to the H.K. Porter Company in Pittsburgh for use in coal mines. Because pneumatic motors do not use combustion they were a much safer option in the coal industry. Many companies claim to be developing Compressed air cars, but none are actually available for purchase or even independent testing. Impact wrenches, pulse tools, nutrunners, screwdrivers, drills, grinders, die grinders, sanders, dental drills and other pneumatic tools use a variety of air motors. These include vane type motors, turbines and piston motors.
Potential energy top of a table. As the book is raised from the floor, to the table, some external force works against the gravitational force. If the book falls back to the floor, the "falling" energy the book receives is provided by the gravitational force. Thus, if the book falls off the table, this potential energy goes to accelerate the mass of the book and is converted into kinetic energy. When the book hits the floor this kinetic energy is converted into heat, deformation and sound by the impact. The factors that affect an object's gravitational potential energy are its height relative
