World’s Simplest Motor for A’ Gymnasium

Demonstrate the workings of a DC motor.

Electricity runs through the coil of wire, and a magnetic field is formed.

The coil pushes away from the ceramic magnet with enough force to turn it all the way around.

As the coil turns around, it becomes charged again and gets another push.

Simply wind the coil, fit the magnet and battery and away it goes.

Requires a D cell.
