Device consisting of an iron or a steel core
Electromagnet
How a magnetic field will interact with an electric circuit to producr an electromotive force
Electromagnetic Induction
Device that converts mechanical energy obtained from external source into electrical power
Electric generator
What is the left hand rule also called as? (flemings)
Motor Rule
Device that turns electrical energy into motion
Electric motor
Electric motor used a conventional flow
DC
Force is the same direction while motor always spins either clockwise or counterclockwise
AC
When a current carrying conductor within a magnetic field moves in the direction of the force
Motor effect
Type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current
electromagnet
