Diffrence between electrical and mechanical dedree?

Question

calculation and their uses

Answer 1

electrical engineering uses a heck of lot of the maths regarding complex numbers to simplify calculations with AC circuitry/machinery  (You can use vectors, but complex numbers seems to be preferred and "neater")

mech eng uses a lot of advanced calculus to do calculations, regarding volumes, forces, stresses/strains etc. Vector maths often comes in too.

Both use matrix algebra to help solve problems, especially in finite element methods

Ah you could be meaning degree as in the size of an angle, rather than qualification?

Don't know about them in electrical engineering, but the mechanical degree is just the use to measure angles in geometry.

(would be usual to use radians for measuring of angles, it makes calcs easier)

Think what khan.eee.cuet refers to is also known as slip

and comes in with induction motors

Answer 2

Hi Abhijit, I suppose you are a student of EEE or ME in some university. If you are asking this question out of your courses related to Electrical Machines e.g. motor, generator etc. I might help you with that. For motor / generator, electrical degree refers to the angle between the conductor and the magnetic flux. But the mechanical degree is related to the mechanical angle between the axie of the two adjacent field coils. I hope you have your answer.

Answer 3

Mechanical makes sense; Electrical is magic.
