How An Electric Motor Works?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    An electric motor works by converting electrical energy into Kinetic energy. Generators and Dynamos generally perform the task of converting kinetic energy into electrical energy. Both the devices do not have much difference between them apart from a little construction and application details. Nearly all electrical motors function on electromagnetism. The basic principles of electromagnetic motors are if there is a mechanical force available on any current-transporting wire with a magnetic field, this type of force is best described by Lorentz force Law and it is vertical to both wire as well as the magnetic field.

    A large number of magnetic motors are rotary, but linear motors are also available. In a rotary motor the revolving part is known as the rotor, and the still part is known as the stator.
