THIS WAS LITERALLY THE ONLY VIDEO ON MOTOR WHICH I UNDERSTOOD!!
THANKS A LOT!

[caac]

For theory of physics, I look at this guy's videos; for physics involving calculations, I look at the organic chemistry tutor's videos. These two youtube accounts have been saving my life for a long time.

Great video, suitable speed and a nice explanation.

[tobioneshinobi]

This is the best explanation for an electric motor.
I have watched several videos where they have the same explanations for everything but can’t seem to explain the commutator part vey well.
Not only did this channel(khan academy) explain all the information vividly, he also explained the commutator part extremely well and I have to say it did take me some time to take in everything, I still understood afterwards which would not have been possible with the other channels.
Books, websites, videos cannot compete with the explanation you have gave which was outstanding.
Once again, thank you so much for having such a good explanation and making me understand

[gauravichhabra]

I was struggling with this concept right until now .Thank you for making this crystal clear to me.💜

[Keletsonx]

I’ve been watching your videos on electromagnetism and electromagnetic induction and wow 🤩 what has taken me a year to understand you’ve explained so clearly in under 15 minutes tysm may your channel continue to grow so you can help more students out there

[anjaniagarwal]

We are so grateful to you sir.. Not just the concepts are explained in such a thorough way but the way this video is edited makes it more easier for us to understand. I can’t imagine the amount of hard work and pain you take for us

[Hino_]

Finally understood the concept very well. This is the best explanation! Thankyou Sir Mahesh!

[nsowdkar]

GOD COULDN'T COME TO THE EARTH AND TEACH BY HIMSELF SO HE TOLD DESTINY TO CREATE KHAN ACADEMY

[Umamahh-iqqp]

extremely helpful, thanks alot
The animation makes it much easier to understand. In some other channels they just keep talking and don't show or write anything which makes it hard to grasp the information.

[robtroman]

Best explanation for how an electric motor works that I have ever seen and I’ve seen a lot.

[snigsss]

Thank you so much!!. This video made the concept crystal clear for me. The animation was amaaazing. I couldn't understand how the flipping of current takes place but thanks to you, now I'll remember the concept for life-long. Thanks a lot again!.

[urvisingh]

Thank you! this just connects the dots to all the concepts!!
