I.INTRODUCTION

II.OBJECTIVES
1. To demonstrate and explain how a simple electric motor works.
2. To prove that moving electric fields generate a magnetic field.
III.MATERIALS:
 Demonstration Motor Setup
 Batteries
 Copper Wires
 Alligator Clips
IV.PROCEDURE
1. Prepare your materials and setup the motor
demonstration.
2. Attach the copper wires to the alligator clips.
Make sure to strip the ends of the wires.
3. Position the alligator clips to the positive and
negative terminals of the motor, and attach it
to the same ends of the power supply.
