The Simplest Electric Motor in the World

Uploaded by: shifzr
Video Description:
1 battery, 1 screw, 1 wire, 1 magnet (extra magnet saves my finger from holding wire to battery's top) - my recreation of the world's simplest motor, found on supermagnete.de

yo nice vid! i'm doing a science fair and i'm just wondering how i could use this to make it into an experieriment ( ex. moving a toy car??)

I've seen it (several times) but I still dont belive it! The idea and principles are there but it is amazing!!!! You have to love science and mechanics especially when they meet!! Great video I love it, THANK YOU.

About that Permanent Battery comment .... type in "Neutrino Rods" into YouTube here and watch both videos. Prepare to be amazed !

is that the "elemental rods" videos? yes they are fantastic aren't they! Thanks Kevin :)

Does anyone know what the power draw is like on a system of this type, as opposed to more traditional electric motors?
Thanks,

This isn't even an electric motor; its an electromagnet motor. And there are easier electric/electromagnet motors.

The Faraday/Homopolar/MHD Motor IS the simplest motor in the world, at least conceptually

you can get it up to 10,000 rpm with a round magnet

Omg, all electric motors in this world work on the principle of electromagnetism. Try thinking next time b4 you post another dumbass comment

No, because the ... ( 7 months ago by HighestRank)

No, because the coeficient of friction does not depend on the shape of the surface of contact, and like a golf ball would be without dimples, more air would stick to it & slow it down.

simple, there are atom size electric motors now like one molecule size.

You sound like a teacher, here someone is all excited about science and your calling them a dumbass? Come to think about it you would make a great politician/preacher too.

Then just have a round magnet with dimples.

1) THIS motor could ... ( 6 months ago by HighestRank)

1) THIS motor could be simpler: the insulation on the wire is extraneous as is the unnecessarily stranded wire.
2) A simpler motor is a cosmic radiation particle spinning a water molecule. No metals needed, just H and O.

The speed of a ... ( 3 months ago by queep19)

The speed of a round magnet is probably faster because of the longer time of contact with the power lines.
