How does an Electric Motor work? DC Motor explained

The video tutorial explains the basics of DC motors, including their components and operation. It covers the fundamentals of electricity, magnetic fields, and electromagnetism, and how these principles apply to DC motors. The tutorial also demonstrates the use of Fleming's left hand rule to determine the direction of force in a motor. Finally, it provides a detailed look at the operation of a DC motor, highlighting the flow of current and the resulting forces that cause rotation.
