One - Electric Motors ? The Basics
1. Introduction
2. Producing Rotation
Nearly all motors exploit the force which is exerted on a current-carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field (Figure 1).
In order to make the most of the mechanism, we need to arrange for there to be a very strong magnetic field, and for it to interact with many conductors, each carrying as much current as possible.

2.1 Magnetic field and magnetic flux
When a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a force.
Experiment shows that the magnitude of the force depends directly on the current in the wire and the strength of the magnetic field, and that the force is greatest when the magnetic field is perpendicular to the conductor.
