Motors convert electrical energy to mechanical energy through moving electric conductors through a magnetic field. Magnets can be permanent magnets or electromagnets.

Which TWO types of magnets do you need to make a simple motor?

The most basic of electric motors consists of a permanent magnet and an electromagnet. This is not a requirement for all types of electric motors and most modern electric motors do not have permanent magnets. The stator and rotor are the two active elements of a simple electric motor and both have magnetic fields in the various types and designs of simple motors.

What is a simple electric motor science project that I can do at home?

A simple electric motor science project that you can do at home involves making a basic motor using a battery, a magnet, and a coil of wire. By connecting the wire to the battery and placing it near the magnet, you can create a simple motor that spins when the circuit is completed. This project demonstrates the principles of electromagnetism and how electric motors work.


Which are some of the stores that one might find to buy magnet motors?

Can small permanent magnet motors be reverse direction if the direction of current flow to the motor is reverse?

Permanent magnet field motors. With a these motors, a permanent magnet is used to replace the field coil. DC power is connected via the brushes, to the armature only. Reversing the polarity, will cause the motor to reverse its direction of rotation. It is very common to use a switch to intentionally reverse to the polarity, to allow reversal of the motor if desired.
