How do motors work? Where is the electromagnet in motors?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

An electromagnet is the basis of an electric motor. You can understand how things work in the motor by imagining the following scenario. Say that you created a simple electromagnet by wrapping 100 loops of wire around a nail and connecting it to a battery. The nail would become a magnet and have a north and south pole while the battery is connected.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The key to an electric motor is to then go one step further so that, at the moment that this half-turn of motion completes, the field of the electromagnet flips. The flip causes the electromagnet to complete another half-turn of motion. You flip the magnetic field just by changing the direction of the electrons flowing in the wire (you do that by flipping the battery over). If the field of the electromagnet were flipped at precisely the right moment at the end of each half-turn of motion, the electric motor would spin freely.

OpenStudy (davidusa):

copied off electronics.ehow.com or something like that, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now say that you take your nail electromagnet, run an axle through the middle of it and suspend it in the middle of a horseshoe magnet as shown in the figure below. If you were to attach a battery to the electromagnet so that the north end of the nail appeared as shown, the basic law of magnetism tells you what would happen: The north end of the electromagnet would be repelled from the north end of the horseshoe magnet and attracted to the south end of the horseshoe magnet. The south end of the electromagnet would be repelled in a similar way. The nail would move about half a turn and then stop in the position shown.

OpenStudy (davidusa):

Lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope i had it saved in my file i asked that same question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i jusr copied it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*Just

OpenStudy (davidusa):

link to question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont have a link its just saved in my files but i can look it up for you

OpenStudy (davidusa):

when i copied that whole first paragraph it came from electronics.ehow.com- maybe the person who helped u copied from it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah probably? But it helped me!

OpenStudy (davidusa):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your good with math?

OpenStudy (davidusa):

Yes.

OpenStudy (davidusa):

If you can explain this to me I can help you with some math!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It will mean so much if you can help with my math homework im failing i need some work done and sure let me explain

OpenStudy (davidusa):

Ok what level is it

OpenStudy (davidusa):

Above like calc i dont think i can help you

OpenStudy (davidusa):

Calculus is scary :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its 9th grade work

OpenStudy (davidusa):

kk

SO EASY! 400,965,992

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OMG THANK YOU!!!!!!!

OpenStudy (davidusa):

LOLZ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im failing :// i need help so anything you need help with ill try helping

OpenStudy (davidusa):

post ur questions here ill answer them and u can explain electromagnet stuff to me :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so this is for your question how a electromagnet works

OpenStudy (davidusa):

700+40+4+.07

OpenStudy (davidusa):

How is this 9th grade stuff

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so HOW DOES ELECTRICITY CREATE MAGNETISM? Each electron is surrounded by a force called an electric field. When an electron moves, it creates a second field—a magnetic field. When electrons are made to flow in a current through a conductor, such as a piece of metal or a coil of wire, the conductor becomes a temporary magnet—an electromagnet.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and yeah it is lol and you mean 700+40+4+0.7 not .07

OpenStudy (anonymous):

HOW DO ELECTRIC MOTORS WORK? A current turns a conductor into an electromagnet. If the current is reversed, the electromagnetic poles will reverse, too. When the electromagnet is placed near a fixed magnet, the two sets of poles repel and attract each other. This produces a force that makes the conductor rotate (spin) at high speed. This turns a shaft, which then drives a machine.

OpenStudy (davidusa):

Ok..... any more questions?
