Показать описание
This video shows you how to make a homopolar motor, a simple motor made from a battery, magnet, and copper wire. This is a fun simple science experiment or demonstration, that you can turn into a science fair project by measuring the rotation speed of the motor if you change a variable (like the size of the magnet or the shape of the wire coil). Written instructions are available on the Science Buddies website:

Can use any kind of magnet? Mine is not spinning

Does it matter if it’s like 20 gauge or something else?

This is cool. Just surprised that the wire makes contact without having to strip off the enamel coating. Does the wire you use have a coating? Do you scrape it off?

This is dangerous; it will work but will short circuit and become very hot.
