Answer to Question #247221 in Physics for jessica

Question

For this learning task, you will investigate the motor principle using the interactive below. Follow the steps below.

Note the direction of the current flow and magnetic field in the interactive. Use the motor principle to predict which way the wire will deflect. You are encouraged to use Fleming’s left hand rule and/or the right hand rule for motors as aids as to make your prediction. Record your prediction with an explanation.

Observe the direction of the motor force in the interactive. Record the result and apply the motor principle to explain it.

Repeat steps 1-2 to predict, explain, observe, and explain the direction of the motor force when the magnet is reversed, the battery is reversed, and both the magnet and battery are reversed.
