A magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) drive works by applying a magnetic field to a fluid which is carrying an electric current.

a. True
b. False

Respuesta :

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A magnetohydrodynamic drive or MHD accelerator is a method which is used for propelling the vehicles using only by applying the electric and magnetic fields. It has no moving parts. It accelerates an electrically conductive propellant (liquid or gas) with magnetohydrodynamics.

Its working principle is same as an electric motor except that in an MHD drive, the moving rotor is replaced by the fluid acting directly as the propellant.

An MHD accelerator is reversible.

So,  the statement is true.
