Build a Simple DC Motor

[ss4435]

COOL! And she's cute!

[blueraiders3]

can the motor be used to move lets say 300lbs forward

[Verradonairun]

@blueraiders3

This design is pretty weak, but I don't think it's possible to pull 300lbs with ANY electric motor using available, commercial technology.

Um u can do somthin with a dc motor , just like give it more power , make it bigger , use a car battery and make a electric scooter etc, maybe not enough power for scooter but somthing like rc car ...

[Berin141]

u have used normal wire not coil. thats nice iv made some motor with 3 volts and also like yours with thin wire.

[senjeki]

can i used simple magnet not neodymium?

[Berin141]

@senjeki

as i remember for normal thin wire neodymium is better.

with coil normal magnet can be used.

[TheSweetPerry]

That is gonna waste the battery very fast. Its like short circuiting. In commercial motors the wire used for winding is very long and thus the winding has considerable resistance.

[joesethy83]

what possible uses?



[merkur32123]

@joesethy83 IF you dont count fun, None

[RKmaker]

How do you use this motor for something like a robot?

cause im wanting to build one :)

[maxepane]

nice short clear video! :)

[joesethy83]

I WAS thinking of doing this for my project.....but what are its possible uses?i mean, would it run something or its merely to study the relationship of magnetism and electricity..

[joesethy83]

i'm thinking of doing this for my project...but what are its possible uses?

i mean what can i do with it if it actually works?

[Stridernub]

The theory is that a current passing through a wire will generate a magnetic field, and will repel the wire from the permanent magnet (opposites attract, similar poles repel).

If it's not working, try turning the magnet around or reversing the current

[joesethy83]

@Stridernub  would this thing run something...what can i use this for?

[cheesemandan1]

thanks i will try it

[thomassing1]

what is the theory behind this?

[PundiShizzle]

@thomassing1

Theorie of Lorentz, you can find the force with the lefthandrule.

[kabuto199]

This doesn't work at all. I have my battery,wire,the magnets and it doesn't work and i have my Science fair proyect for this Tuesday. If it works i dont now what i am doing wrong.

[deathimmortal]

what can you possibly do with this DC motor?

[lamboboy732]

@deathimmortal absolutely nothing but i guess it is something they would do in a science class

[kuramsai]

@deathimmortal ----'Tis by DC motor by which our fan works dude....

[aeacfm]

great idea

[NarutoLUVaw]

it does btw,

[jfsimard79]

This doesn't work. I bought all the stuff for nothing. Oh well.

[hakonsk]

@jfsimard79 lollollollolololololollolollol­oolololoololololoolol! it does work!

[quareshmuah]

even mw ??? i tried soo hard !
