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.
Advantage of using electromagnet in an electric motor rather than a permanent magnet?
convert electrical energy to energy of motion...! the usage of an electromagnet allows us to control the flow of electrons to the electric rotor,thereby allowing us to control the working of the rotor,whereas with a permanent magnet there will be a continuous supply of energy which can be stopped only if the magnet is damaged or heated.
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.
Is the refrigerator a magnet?
No- but if it has an electric motor (most do) the motor operates by use of an electromagnet. Many refrigerator door seals (not all) includes magnets.
What does an electric motor use an electromagnet to do?
Convert electrical energy to energy of motion...
What parts do the electromagnet electric motor and speaker have in common?
A magnet

How Electric Motors Work?
Many people are not aware of the fact that electric motors exist all around them. They are used in their car, washing machine, food processor, and so on. Even fewer people are aware of the way in which an electric motor actually works. Here are some of the basics. An electric motor is powered by the forces of electricity and magnetism. Magnets are used in order to create motion. Consider a simple magnet, with a north and south pole. The fact that a pole is attracted by its opposite and repulsed by the same is utilized in order to create the motion inside of an electric motor. The heart of the electric motor is the rotor, which is an electromagnet. An electromagnet consists of copper wiring that has been wound in a circle. When electricity moves in a circle, it creates a magnetic field. When electricity moves through the coil of wire, it becomes a magnet. When electricity is not passing through it, it is simply a coil of copper wiring. Inside an electric motor, there is at least one permanent magnet. When the electromagnet is activated, the north pole of the permanent magnet faces the north pole of the electromagnet. The permanent magnet is attached to an arm that can rotate around the electromagnet. Since the permanent magnet is repulsed by the north end of the electromagnet, it swings around to the other side. The direction of the electricity through the electromagnet is then reversed. This causes the north end of the electromagnet to become the south end. When this happens, the permanent magnet against swings over to the other side. This is the basic principle behind how all electric motors work. There are two basic types of electric motors: those that run on alternating current and those that run on direct current. A motor that runs on alternating current can take advantage of the fact that the direction of the electricity is constantly reversing in order to constantly reverse the polarity of the electromagnet and keep the electric motor running. In the case of direct current, a device known as a commutator is used in order to switch the direction of the current back and forth.

Why does a blender have a magnet?
Yes a blender does have an electromagnet in it

Is a refrigerator an example of a permanet magnet or magnetic material?
A refrigerator is not a magnet, however it does contain an electric motor, and within that motor are permanent magnets (as well as electromagnets).
How do motors that do NOT use magnets work?
Motors that do not have magnets work exactly the same. The permanent magnet is replaced by a electromagnet, which is a coil of wire with a voltage applied to it. This electromagnet is what produces the magnet field necessary for a motor to operate. It is just easier and lighter to use this style of DC motor in larger applications.
Can you run a 24 volt dc motor with 24 volt ac power?
Not usually. But this depends on how the motor is made. So a permanent magnet motor is usually a d.c. Motor. It's something to do as with the wires in the motor, the electromagnet-outer fields are wound.
What causes the spinning an electric motor?
an electromagnet
