What is the motor effect?

A demonstration of the motor, and then an explanation of the motor effect - the resulting force when a current bearing wire is placed in a magnetic field

Thank you. I like your energy and how you are actually interested in sharing your knowledge

[@alasdairwalker-cox2433]

Thanks for making this video, my son found this very interesting

[@matthewdeakin9939]

really helpful video, thanks :)

[@alonsoronda3131]

great video although i did not really understood how you got the direction of the current when using flemings rule.

My video on hand rules may help Physics hand rules explained kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZ64g5l9aNl0nsk

Thanks a lot for clearing our concept. Thanks a lot

[@PhysicsHigh]

You’re welcome.

youre a legend

[@EliBanta]

Thanks for the video! Can I ask about the values you are using for your set-up? I can see it is DC volts but wondering how much.

[@ThePoshboy1]

Thanks for the video.

[@ussain3132]

Thank u very helpful

[@PhysicsHigh]

Glad it did.

If you use ac, the copper wire would be like a swing ?

[@PhysicsHigh]

Yes, at 50 Hz

[@binashah3106]

when to use left hand and when to use right?

[@PhysicsHigh]

That depends. If Fleming rules then left for Lorentz force, right for induction. If your use palm rule (common in Australian schools) then it’s the opposite. See my hand rules video.

[@beachboardfan9544]

Whats the scoop with that insanely old slide resistor (I'm guessing thats what it is called)?

[@PhysicsHigh]

It’s a rheostat, and it allows a nicely controlled variation of resistance and this current. Old school yes, but perfect for this demonstration.
