An electric motor.

In a motor the coil spins within the magenetic field producing mechanical energy. In a generator the magnet spins within a coil to produce electricity. in either case the magnets can be either solid fixed magents or electromagnetic coils.

Can a magnet be used to produce electricity?

Why are magnets used?

Electro magnets can be very useful to carry heavy loads of iron and metal from one side of a factory to another. Electro-magnets are formed by shooting electricity through a coil of copper.


What is a rotating machine that transforms electric energy into mechanical energy?

There is a rotating machine that transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy. It is called a motor. These exist in many electronic gadgets, toys, and cell phones. These motors consist of a coil of wire (usully copper) and permanant magnets. When current is sent through these coils, it interacts with the magnetic field caused by the magnets, creating torque on that coil, which in turn causes it to spin. This spinning can be used as mechanical energy to power someting. An electrical motor can also be used in reverse. This is how electricity is generated. A generator is just an electrical motor in reverse. By using an engine, falling water, or steam to turn a motor, current is created inside the spinning copper coil, which can then be transmitted along a power grid.


How are electro magnet different from permanent magnet?

Electro magnets differs from permanent magnet because it requires electricity. A simple electro magnet consists of an iron rod wrapped in a coil of copper and when electricity flows through the copper, a magnetic field is formed.


Do magnets make electricity?

No. Magnets create an electric feild, not electricity.However, when you spin a magnet inside a coil of wire (or you can spin the coil of wire instead), you will create an electrical current.


How you make permanent steel magnets?

no.1 take a steel part and then a insulated wire of pure cupper wind around the steel part and then pass a direct current using a battery through this coil of copper then after 5 mints remove the battery. then steel part will act as a strong magnets.


Why does the coil have to be balanced on an electric motor?

It will be spinning at high revolutions.


What force makes the coilgun work?

the force of objects being attracted by magnets. the coils or solenoids act as magnets and the projectile (which must be able to attract to magnets, often iron or steel is used) is attracted to the coils. but when the projectile reaches the coil the coil must be turned off so the projectile keeps going instead of stopping at the coil.


What is an armature made of?

The armature is the part of an electric generator or motor that contains the main current-carrying winding. It usually consists of a coil of copper wire that is wound around an iron or steel core. The coil and core are placed in a magnetic field, which is produced by one or more permanent magnets or electromagnets.


Can magnets produce electric currents?

Motion of a coil within a magnetic field will induce a current in the coil if it can complete a circuit.
