Simple Electric Motor
Simple Electric Motor | 12-02-2003 10:06 pm |
This is a simple electric motor my son and I built. It is one of the simplest electric motors you can build. A few turns of magnet wire, a permanent magnet taken from a dead hard drive, two paper clips, a battery and a few sheet rock screws is all it takes.
Some people call this a beakman motor after a science show that showed how to build it.
The type of motor this is called is a pulse motor, as it pulses on and off and the electro magnet is not constantly driven.
