A magnet, permanent or electro-, will induce an opposite magnetic field in a ferromagnetic material. These two fields will attract, and if either of the members is free to move it will do so.

Hans Oersted, a Dane, in 1820 noticed that an electrical current caused a nearby magnetic needle to move.

How is electricity transformed into motion?

A motor transforms electricity. Inside the motor, there is a permanent magnet and an electromagnet, which can rotate. When the circuit is closed, the electromagnet is constantly repelled and attracted to the permanent magnet. This will cause the electromagnet to turn. It also causes anything that is attached to the electromagnet to turn, causing motion.

What does an electromagnet do when it is connected with wires and a motor?

When an electromagnet is connected to wires and a motor, the electromagnet generates a magnetic field when current flows through the wires. This magnetic field interacts with other magnetic fields in the motor, causing the motor to either spin or generate motion depending on the design and configuration.
