Question: How do I make a magnetic motor that's will constantly produce power
It's important to mention that perpetual motion machines or magnetic motors producing continuous power without an external input are considered impossible based on the laws of physics (particularly the laws of thermodynamics and the concept of conservation of energy). However, I can provide you with information on building an electromagnetic motor for educational purposes. Electromagnetic motors make use of magnets and electric currents to generate rotational motion. Here is a simple step-by-step guide to building a basic electromagnetic motor: Materials: 1. Copper wire (enameled or coated) 2. Neodymium magnets 3. Battery (AA or AAA batteries would suffice) 4. Cardboard or wooden base 5. 2 metal strips or paperclips 6. A small piece of sandpaper 7. Tape Instructions: 1. Prepare the copper wire: Take the enameled copper wire and wrap it around an object with a circular shape (e.g., a AA or AAA battery) to create multiple turns (about 20-30 turns). Make sure the resulting coil of wire is tightly wound. 2. Remove the enamel: Using sandpaper, carefully remove the enamel from one side of the copper wire ends, and remove only half of the enamel on the other side. This will create asymmetric contact points that will cause the motor to spin. 3. Create the armature: Bend the ends of the copper wire to create small loops that will act as the point of contact with your metal strips or paper clips. Make sure the loops are low resistance and in good contact with the metal strips. 4. Set up the support: Attach the neodymium magnets to the battery using tape. Connect the metal strips or paper clips to the ends of the battery, making sure the clips are in contact with the magnets. Place this assembly on your cardboard or wooden base. 5. Put it all together: Place the coil of wire on the metal strips or paper clips, with the loops making contact to create a circuit. Ensure there is minimal friction between the armature and the support structure. 6. Start the motor: Give the coil a slight push to start the spinning motion. If the motor doesn't spin right away, check the connections and make sure the copper wire is sanded correctly. Remember, this simple electromagnetic motor will only work when a power source is applied (i.e., the battery) and this experiment is for educational purposes. It does not constitute a perpetual motion machine or a continuous power source.
