DC electric motor

ACalternating current

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between a magnetic field and electric current in a winding of wire. This interaction creates a force (Faraday's Law) as torque on the motor shaft. The electric motor consists of two main parts, one of which is fixed (Stator or Inductor) and the other rotating around itself (Rotor or Armature). These main parts are divided into various parts: parts that transmit electric current (windings, brushes), parts that transmit magnetic flux (insulated sheet components) and parts that support the formation (screws, bearings). Electric motors are basically divided into two groups according to the electric current they feed: direct current (DC) motors and alternating current (AC) motors. Direct current (DC) motors can operate with direct current sources such as batteries, batteries or adapters. Alternating current (AC) motors are motors that can operate "frequency dependent" with the city network, industrial voltage, transformer, inverter or generator.
