Turbine-electric transmission enters a turbine, where it expands down to the exhaust pressure, producing a shaft work output in the process. The exhaust is fed into the power turbine used to power an output shaft for whatever desired application. The power turbine is also connected to the electric generator, which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. The electric generator driven by the power turbine charges the battery needed in order to drive the motor that supplies compressed air into the combustor. During cruise speed the electric motor does not have to be functioning, only the gas turbine engine is required to continue
Mechanical resonance the only frequency at which it will vibrate, is given approximately, for small displacements, by the equation: where "g" is the acceleration due to gravity (about 9.8 m/s near the surface of Earth), and "L" is the length from the pivot point to the center of mass.(An elliptic integral yields a description for any displacement). Note that, in this approximation, the frequency does not depend on mass. Mechanical resonators work by transferring energy repeatedly from kinetic to potential form and back again. In the pendulum, for example, all the energy is stored as gravitational energy (a form of potential energy)
