ELECTRIC MOTOR
Electric motors are nothing new; in fact they have been around for years
upon years and their not uncommon either. They would be all around you're
house, in your oven, your microwave, your VCR, your computer, your stereo
etc….
But how do they work? Inside there are several components, two magnets,
an armature, an axle, a commutator and two brushes. The motor uses magnetism
to create a rotating effect. As we know magnets have two poles, north
and south. And the North Pole will attract the south pole of another magnet
but repel the north pole of the other magnet. So opposite poles attract
and like poles repel.
