Electric motor

November 20th, 2008 Christian Grantham

This simple demonstration helped explain to me the relationship between the magnets, coil, and current in an electric motor. I still don’t know whether the coil size matters, or if it would benefit to have more of them for the magnets to pass over. I also don’t yet know if the angles or positions of the magnetic fields matter.
