Build a simple electric motor with just a battery, magnet, paper clips, and coil of wire in this fun science experiment! Written instructions are available on the Science Buddies website: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project-ideas/Elec_p051/electricity-electronics/build-a-simple-electric-motor?ytid=WI0pGk0MMhg&ytsrc=description
Note: there is a small typo at 0:40 in the video. That should be 3 *cm* (centimeters) of wire, not m (meters)!
Science Buddies also hosts a library of instructions for over 1,000 other hands-on science projects, lesson plans, and fun activities for K-12 parents, students, and teachers! Visit us at https://www.sciencebuddies.org/?ytid=WI0pGk0MMhg&ytsrc=description to learn more.

Just wondering why do you need a battery to make this work magnets respond to other magnets all the time without one because of the electromagnetic currents
We made this for our child's school science project – it is simple to make, and yet so powerful to demonstrate electromagnetism. Thank you so much for this video!!! Namaste from India.
How mutch vats does it need
THANK YOU SO MUCH. The insulation part confused me before but when you gave visual, it helped me so much!
Doesn't this generate electricity in hands?
@Science.Buddies what is the AWG of the wire used on the video? Thank you in advance 😊
How many mm is that copper?
What is the size of the magnet wire????
Will it explode if the battery gets hot? @Science.Buddies
