Howdy gezwez,
This Google cache copy of a Wilderness Energy Systems
web page asks the question (about scooters): "How does
the controller determine the speed at which the motor
rotates?"

"The pulses of electricity sent to the hub motor are
determined by the throttle, which is mounted on the
handlebars of your bicycle. The throttle is actually
just a magnet passing by a 'Hall Effects Sensor.'
Power is supplied to the throttle from the battery.
The throttle then rations a small amount of power:
from 0 to 5 Volts, which it sends to the controller.
The amount of voltage sent to the controller is
determined by how much the throttle is twisted.
As the throttle is twisted, 'Hall Effects Sensors'
read the amount of voltage, and send this amount of
voltage to the controller. 5 volts means the
controller does nothing: sends no pulses to the hub
motor, 0 volts means the controller sends electrical
pulses to the hub motor as fast as it can."
The Magnetic Sensors Corporation website describes
the usage of the 3 wires.

"Hall effect sensors have three wire connections: power
(4.5V DC to 24V DC), ground, and signal output."
This NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration)
Tech Brief web page has a great diagram of a throttle type
use of a "Hall-Effect" sensor.

"Spectrol has produced an innovative design for a
three-terminal voltage output device that integrates
a Hall-effect sensor and a patented magnetic circuit
to convert radial motion into a voltage-output signal."
If you need any clarification, feel free to ask.
