About this Simulation

This interactive simulator models the operation of a direct current motor, allowing learners to visualize how electromagnetic forces drive rotation. Users can observe the interaction between magnetic fields and current-carrying conductors, adjusting key variables to understand motor behavior and performance in real time.

Learning objectives: Understand how current and magnetic fields produce rotational force in DC motors | Explore the relationship between voltage, current, and motor speed | Investigate how motor design parameters affect performance and efficiency
