Understanding DC Motors and Their Components

The video tutorial explains how various devices operate on electricity, focusing on the DC motor's role in creating motion. It covers the components of a DC motor, such as split rings and carbon brushes, and demonstrates how magnetic fields interact with current-carrying conductors to produce forces. The tutorial also explains how these forces cause the motor to turn, using Fleming's Left Hand Rule to determine the direction of the force. The video concludes by relating these principles to personal mobility devices.
