Abstract The purpose of my project is to study how a motor that is powered by clean energy and constructed from simple equipment can be used to do useful work in the world such as moving cars, operating ski lifts and moving people up an down escalators. The experiment also demonstrated to me how magnetic fields, electricity and a coil of wire can be used to create a useful motor that can rotate and do work.
