Motor principle-motor lab

The motor lab based on faraday's motor principle was conducted last class. It was a good experience overall. The best part about it was the me and my partner were proud of ourselves for being the firsts ones finished and getting the motor to work in one try. The reason it worked for us was because our brushes were installed correctly and the main part which was the coiling of the copper wire was done correctly(i.e the direction of the coil was one way only). Some groups motors did not work because either their wire was not wrapped around the cork properly or the brushes were not sanded properly and/or they were not placed in the correct position and therefore were not touching the commutator pins.
