Introducing Magnetic Fields and the Electric Motor Effect
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service, this is an activity that provides an opportunity for students to use basic knowledge of magnetic fields to explore how magnets can be used to create motion.
The activity involves hands-on learning in the form of constructing an electric motor out of magnets, a battery, a length of wire and a nail.
HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment.
Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date.
Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work.
