Question

Commercial electric motors do not use:

  1. An electromagnet to rotate the armature
  2. The effectively large number of turns of conducting wire in the current-carrying coil
  3. A permanent magnet to rotate the armature
  4. A soft iron core on which the coil is wound

hintHint:

permanent magnet do not produce strong magnetic field

The correct answer is: A permanent magnet to rotate the armature


    • Since permanent magnet do not produce strong magnetic field it is not used in commercial electric motors.
