Class+1+-+Motors+1

=Class 1 - Motors 1 Famous Inventors= = William Sturgeon - Invented the electromagnet in 1825. His first electromagnet was a horseshoe - shaped piece of iron. That was wrapped with a coil few times. When a current passed through the coil the electromagnet was magnetized when it stopped it was De- magnetized.= = Han Christian Oersted - He found the generation of a magnetic field by doing a electric current by a observation of a compass needle.This was the first time of a movement of electric current.= = Michael Faraday- He did two experiments for the **​**electromagnetic. A vertically wire moves in a circular orbiting around the magnet.=

= History Of Electric Motor =

=In the 1830's, Michael Faraday made a discovery that has made our work easier for all of us. While Michael Faraday was experimenting with magnets he found that moving a wire through a magnetic field would produce an electric current. This experiment is important because it led to the discovery of the electric motor and generators.=

= Advantages and Disadvantages: =

=Advantages: Low initial cost,long life,high efficiency, automated control, no fossil fuels,save labor cost,occupational safety.=

= = =Disadvantages: Have to pay for gas when there is a storm also when your car is broken. A another thing is potability,demand charges,speed control.=

= How it is use today: They are use for cars and household appliances= =* Generator= =***Cars**= =***Heaters**= =***Washing/drying machine**= =***Electric shooter**= =***Coil spinning,straw magnetism, electric magnetism**= = = = = = = = Personal Experience: **Been on electric shooter, you kind of push yourself and twist the handle and you fly off. Been in cars use washers / dryers for cleaning. we use heaters for heat and warmth we would be cold in the winter if we didn't have heaters.**=
