Ackshually, engines are a subset of motors. Much as humans are a subset of apes, which are a subset of monkeys.
>>
>>28936272
but when i say monkeyball you know exactly which ball sport i'm talking about
>>
>>28936213
Patricians just call it prime mover sports and we're fine.
>>
>>28936213
Why do we call it a 'motorcycle' instead of an 'enginecycle'?
>>
>>28936272
No, motors are a subset of engines. Jet engines aren't motors.

>>28936213
The motor is used to imply some sort of moving vehicle, if it was engine sports then you would have guys bench racing bare engines strapped to dynos.
>>
>>28936296
Until recently all engines were considered motors. Now it's shifting to where people see motor as "electric" but by the real definitions a jet engine is a type of motor.
>>
>>28936213
because they're motoring not engineing

No, your feelings don't define scientific concepts. An engine is a specific thermodynamic mechanism by which heat/entropy is turned into work.
>>
>>28936322
That's the one
>>
>>28936328
So? It's still a type of motor.
I am a human, a human is not a chimpanzee, but both are monkeys.
>>
>>28936356
No it's not, and no humans are not monkeys retard. An engine simply does work, it doesn't define the type of work. A motor specifically causes movement.

Hence enginesports is a retarded term.

a motor converts energy to motion (hence -or)
a generator converts motion to electricity/energy.

> Humans are not a subset of monkeys.
niggers are
>>
>>28936424
all of the animals (including the human) in your pic are apes, not monkeys
>>
>>28936284
Why do we call it a jet ski when it's actually a boatercycle
>>
>>28936360
then why are movements called motor functions not engine functions you fucktard.
>>
>>28936644
because your body converts energy into motion…

Prove it.

All humans are a subset of blacks (everyone evolved from them).

that's what (((they))) want you to believe but white man came to earth on an asteroid.
>>
>>28936785
White people are Human/Neanderthal hybrids.
>>
>>28936788
sure, after a millennia of race mixing that's the case now but white people originally came to earth on an asteroid.

And the Earth is round.

>>28936793
>the Earth is round.
sort of. it's more like a football, according to google AI. but that's neither here nor there because the big issue on the plate is why are motorsports not called wheelsports.
in fact, why is motorsport even called a sport?
>>
>>28936785
Is that why they can't dance?
>>
>>28936644
>A motor specifically causes movement.

>then why are movements called motor functions

Anon.. I ... what...............
