5K40.05 Worlds Simplest Motor
Abstract
The worlds simplest motor is made up of a coiled copper wire which is connected to a battery and hangs over
permanent magnet. The battery creates a voltage which cause current to flow through the wire. The magnetic
field induced by the current loop opposes that of the permanent magnet causing the wire to spin. The worlds
simplest motor shows how chemical and electrical energy can be converted into mechanical energy using only very
simple components.

Equipment
• World simplest motor
• Coiled copper wire
• C battery
Procedure
Insert the battery into the bottom of the motor then place the copper wire on top so that it hangs over the
permanent magnet. Spin the wire to start the motor. If it slides to the side, bend one end of the wire to hold it
in place.
