How does a motor work?

• Current generates an electric field around the loop of wire. The electric force causes the loop of wire to rotate.

• Current generates a magnetic field in the loop of wire that is then attracted and repelled by the magnet(s) in the motor.

• The magnets in the motor attract and repel the metal in the copper wire that makes up the loop. This causes the loop to rotate.
