See for yourself how the forces of electricity and magnetism can work together by building a simple DC electric motor using simple materials you can find in any hardware store!
Electricity and magnetism are both forces caused by the movement of tiny charged particles that make up atoms, the building blocks of all matter. When a wire is hooked up to a battery, current flows through the wire because negatively charged electrons flow from the negative terminal of the battery toward the positive terminal of the battery because opposite charges attract each other, while similar charges repel each other. This flow of electrons through the wire is an electric current, and it produces a magnetic field.
In a magnet, atoms are lined up so that the negatively charged electrons are all spinning in the same direction. Like an electric current, the movement of the electrons creates a magnetic force. The area around the magnet where the force is active is called a magnetic field. Metal objects and other magnets that enter this field will be pulled toward the magnet.
The way the atoms are lined up creates two different poles in the magnet, a north pole and a south pole. As with electrical charges, opposite poles attract each other, while like poles repel each other.

Now let's watch it work as we build a motor.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Number of extra electrons, n = 21749
We need to find the net charge on the metal ball. Let Q is the net charge.
We know that the charge on an electron is
To find the net charge if there are n number of extra electrons is :
Q = n × q
So, the net charge on the metal ball is
. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
Sound vibrations travel in a wave pattern, and we call these vibrations sound waves. Sound waves move by vibrating objects and these objects vibrate other surrounding objects, carrying the sound along. ... Sound can move through the air, water, or solids, as long as there are particles to bounce off of.
Explanation:
Answer:
The answer to your question is: V2 = 1 l
Explanation:
Data
P1 = 200 kPa
P2 = 300 kPa
V1 = 1.5 l
V2 = ?
Formula
P1V1 = P2V2
V2 = (P1V1) / P2
V2 = (200 x 1.5) / 300
V2 = 1 l
The answer is solid because gas is a chemical and water is a compound
