Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the principle behind the working of an electric motor?
  • Step 1: Understand that an electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.
  • Step 2: Learn about the Lorentz force, which is the force experienced by a wire carrying electric current in a magnetic field.
  • Step 3: Recognize that when electricity flows through a wire in a magnetic field, the wire experiences a push or pull due to the Lorentz force.
  • Step 4: This push or pull causes the wire (or coil) to move, creating rotational motion.
  • Step 5: The rotational motion of the wire is what powers the motor and does work, like turning a fan or driving a car.
