An electric motor and gas engine. It's the first line.
And what are the most common applications for those? People don't just have motors sitting around attached to nothing.
Generators, fans, boats, planes, lawnmowers (sit on and push), strimmers, powered dumpers, diggers etc etc. if you Google it you'll probably find more.
