How is Law of electric charge related to electric motor?
An electric motor is made up of magnets .. some electric induced magnets , some permanent magnets . the electric magnets are arranged so that when the power is turned on they activate in a series of pulsing magnets.. this pulsing causes the magnets in the core and the magnets in the body of the motor to repel and attract as magnets will do .. this repelling and attracting causes the magnets to try and chase each other around .. this action is turning the core of the motor and producing the rotating action expected from an electric motor

Why do you get an electric shock by touching a bare wire?
electric shock is a physiological symptom caused by an electric current flowing though the body. the current causes heating and, at higher levels, burns, and eventually death. The bare wire has an electric potential of some substantial voltage above ground. This potential causes a current to flow through your body to ground. if some other part of your body is not connected to ground, no current will flow. The current causes burning in your blood stream, your nervous system, and in you tissue. the current that flows through your body needs to be above about 10mA for you to perceive it as a shock. The voltage required to produce this current, by ohms law, depends upon the resistance between the point of contact and ground.
How is energy lost from power stations to homes?
The resistance of the cables that conduct the electric current away from the substations causes the cables to dissipate some of the electrical energy in the form of heat.
