Motors


Today, Sam, Gemma, and I did the Motors Lab. We finished the first lab.. We coiled wire around a straw and stripped the coating off the ends... we then attached the ends to the battery and insterted a needle half-way into the straw and it got sucked in!! We started on the next lab.. Making our our Motors.. but when I tried it, it didn't work as it did in the diagram.. the wire loop was supposed to spin around, but it just fell out.. I learned how much power/ magnetic power there is to be able to pull a needle into a straw.. I'd really also like to know why the second lab didn't work.....

the picture is of the 2nd lab..
