When will Cummins stop calling motors “engines”?
Never and here is why "motors" run on electricity, while "engines" run on combustion or burns fuel.
But wait....why do they call those things that used to lift the space shuttle into orbit, rocket motors ( advanced solid rocket motor ) ?
That's a long azzsed extension cord they must have to run to them !
the media does ,but NASA doesn't(they say main shuttle engines) ,kinda like the media always insisting using tarmac to describe airport 'apron' drives the avgeeks crazy.
