Best Answer

Can make electric motor more powerful by: 1) Increasing the number of turns of the rotating coil. 2) using stronger magnet. 3) multiplying the number of coils and commutator segments. 4) winding the coil on a soft iron core; the soft iron core becomes magnetised and concentrates its magnetic field in the coil, this increases the forces on the coil.

Get a metal rod and wrap some Insulated copper wire around it. You can use some other wires but it might not work as well. Make sure the wire isn't too thick. Wrap the wire 50+ times. Connect the two ends of the wire to a battery. Don't connect it to a strong power source as it will get very hot very quickly. Now the rod is a magnet until the battery dies or you cut of the current. Also; now the iron rod now has become a weak permanent magnet. The more current you add to it the more stronger it will be and the longer you have the battery on the stronger it will be.. Also, don't drop it as it will lose it's magnetic properties.

you wrap a copper wire around a nail then you take a nine volt battery and attach one end of the wire to the positive side of the battery and then the other side of the wire to the negative side of the battery, then you have an electromagnet, have fun using it.

Magnetism is always created with an electric current. In a straight piece of wire, the magnetic field goes around the wire. If the wire is coiled, a magnetic field is created the same shape as a normal iron magnet.

If it is made of conducting material it can be moved directly by a magnetic field which is made to rotate or move linearly. Another way is to use an electric motor
