To build a simple motor, and analyze the relationship between current flow in a conductor in the form of a coil, the permanent and induced magnetic fields, and the resulting torque that turns the motor.
Make a homopolar motor from a battery, magnet, and a piece of copper wire in this simple STEM activity.
Sample data table in which to record observations of the effect of different strengths of the permanent magnet on the motor's spinning speed and spinning direction. Prepare your motor with one small cylindrical neodymium magnet place in the center of the battery.
Electric motors work by taking advantage of the interaction of magnetic fields and current-carrying conductors. In this science project, you will build what might be the world's simplest motor. The motor has four parts: a battery, a piece of copper wire, a small screwdriver, and neodymium magnets.
30 paź 2020 · Students investigate motors and electromagnets as they construct their own simple electric motors using batteries, magnets, paperclips and wire. This engineering curriculum aligns to Next Generation Science Standards ( NGSS ).
build a simple electric motor and describe how it works; list some of the ways motors are used at home; explain the role generators play in producing electricity; describe the energy conversions that take place in a motor and generator; and. identify the similarities between motors and generators.
Kids learn how to make a simple electric motor in this great engineering science fair project that teaches them how current generates its own magnetic field.
