In order for an electric motor to spin freely you will have to make sure you have one thing. You have to have the electric current for the motor to run freely.

What causes the axle to spin in an electric motor?

Switching the field voltage to the coils forces the magnets to move.


How do you store the 30 volts produced from spinning an electric motor?

A motor can be connected up to a car battery to store the power produced when it runs as a generator, but you will find that when current is drawn the motor needs more work to spin it, it will not spin so easily. That is because of conservation of energy.


Why the DC motor is call as synchronous motor?

A 60Hz synchronous motor spins at synchronous speed - if it's a two pole motor it will spin at exactly 1800 rpms. An asynchronous motor will spin at a speed lower than the power supply frequency - a symilar asynchronous motor may spin at 1700 rpms.


What does the brushes and commentator in a D C motor do?

i have never heard of a commentator in a motor, think you may be mistaking that word. inside an electric motor you have a stator and windings, as polarity changes it spins the stator and the brushes transfer the charge to the device being used.. I think they meant commutator. If you break an electric motor down to 2 parts, you have a commutator and an armature. the armature being the shaft that basically floats on bearings, and the commutator being the hull where the stator is. (and there is such thing as a brushless electric motor.) the stator does not spin. that is the term used for the magnets that pull the electric field supplied by the brushes. To make even more simple, imagine a shaft floating on bearings with 2 magnets on it, one positive and one negative ( the armature) and this shaft is inside of a ring of electricity the is flowing in one direction, its going to pull the negative and push the positive (the commutator) and cause the armature to spin.


Is there any example for electric motors?

You probably have one in your computer - any spinning disk uses a motor to spin (hard drives, DVD/CD drives, Floppy drives, etc.). If you have a phone that has that can vibrate, it has a small motor (the motor's rotor, or the center part that spins, has a small weight on it that is off-center - this is what causes the vibrations). Most fans are electric motors (air conditioning/heating fan in your car, etc.).

In an electric motor a magnetic field causes a current carrying LOOP to spin true or False?

True. In an electric motor, a magnetic field causes a current-carrying loop to experience a torque that makes it spin. This spinning motion is the basis of how electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.

How did electromagnets used in an electric fan?

Electromagnets are used in the electric motor of a fan. The magnetism created by the electric current in the core of the motor interacts with a fixed magnet, causing the motor to spin and drive the fan blades. This rotation creates airflow, producing the wind or breeze effect.


What are fans powered by?

What energy transformation occurs in a electric motor?

In an electric motor, electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy. When electric current flows through the motor's coil, it generates a magnetic field that interacts with the magnetic field of the motor, causing the rotor to spin and produce mechanical motion. This process allows the motor to perform work, such as turning a fan or driving a conveyor belt.
