ELECTRIC MOTOR
-
Description
This ready-built demonstration electric motor is
a fully functional unit which clearly shows all the
essential features of a simple motor as taught in
the KS4 syllabus.
A single rectangular coil rotates in a linear
magnetic field with a simple commutator and
brush arrangement.
Field direction can be reversed by reversing the
ferrite slab magnets and current direction can be
reversed by reversing the leads. Connections are
by standard 4mm plugs and the brushes are easily
adjustable for reliable operation.
Voltages 1.5 to 6V.
