Electromagnetism
... An electric motor is a device that changes electrical energy into kinetic energy. The motor uses magnets to create motion. The electrical current enters into the motor to the commutator which turns the armature a half turn, current is reversed which turns the armature another half turn until it spin ...

some historical information on electromagnetism
... 1747 - Benjamin Franklin proposes the principle of conservation of charge and calls the fluid that exists and flows ``positive''. (It is actually negative i.e. electrons, and this is why the direction of current flow in circuits is opposite to the direction which the electrons move.) 1750 - John Mic ...

History of electromagnetic theory
For a chronological guide to this subject, see Timeline of electromagnetic theory.The history of electromagnetic theory begins with ancient measures to deal with atmospheric electricity, in particular lightning. People then had little understanding of electricity, and were unable to scientifically explain the phenomena. In the 19th century there was a unification of the history of electric theory with the history of magnetic theory. It became clear that electricity should be treated jointly with magnetism, because wherever electricity is in motion, magnetism is also present. Magnetism was not fully explained until the idea of magnetic induction was developed. Electricity was not fully explained until the idea of electric charge was developed.
