I have an assessment task that requires me to demonstrate the motor effect and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on an experiment I could do...
:uhhuh:
Thanks for your help!

Well, it needs to involve a magnet, conductor and current. The motor effect= a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field experiences a force. Therefore, you need to set something up that has a current going through it, and place a magnet near it. That might help you a bit more, but I'm not going to tell you the experiment that demonstrates it (that's your job :p).

refer to a text book and they'll tell you how to do the experiment.

Consisting of a current carrying wire and two magnets.

You guys up to Motors and Generators already??
Im still finishing space
When I started the Physics HSC course, we did Motors and Generators first. Don't forget, Space is the longest topic and teachers teach at different paces.

we have the same assesment...there's a question about magnitude of force ...how do u find 'magnitude of force'???

P.S. I am doing tht exp. with current balance and loop of wire hanging down and all..
