Electric Motor
Converts electricity into mechanical motion Works by electromagnetism Lorentz Force Law
Current flowing through a wire produces a magnetic field (labeled M here) around the wire.
Simple DC Motor
Armature or rotor Commutator Brushes Axle Field magnet DC power supply
Simple DC Motor
A magnetic field is generated around the armature. The left side of the armature is pushed away from the left magnet and drawn toward the right, causing rotation. When the armature becomes horizontally aligned, the commutator reverses the direction of current through the coil, reversing the magnetic field. Momentum keeps the motor moving the right direction. The process then repeats.
3 Pole Motor
A motor can have any number of poles Most common form Doesnt get stuck in horizontal position In 2 pole, always shorts out the battery when the commutator flips the field
EVERYTHING!!!!!
These percentages are typically higher in developing countries, while the motors are typically less efficient
