Electric FieldAn Electric Field or Force Surrounding a Charged Particle
An electric field radiates outward from a positive charge and radiates in toward a negative point charge.

•The movement of Electric Charges is called Current.
• Current is measured by the amount of charge (Coulombs) passing through the cross-sectional area of a conductor in a given period of time (Seconds).
•A Conventional Current flows from a positive battery terminal to a negative battery terminal.

Current Electricity
Batteries use electrochemical reactions to produce dissimilar charges used to create current in DC motors and circuits.

Ions contain CHARGES that create electric fields. These opposite electric fields produce imbalanced forces necessary
to move the charges through the circuit.

Current Electricity
The electric field produced in a battery forces current through an electric circuit or conductor connected across the battery poles,

A current created by the unidirectional movement of charge(s) through a conductor is called a direct current.
This current is produced by all batteries

The Right Hand Rule
The direction of the magnetic field surrounding the conductor can be found using your right hand
Position the thumb of your right hand pointing in the direction of conventional current (Positive to Negative) and your fingers will wrap around the conductor in the direction of the induced magnetic field.

Motor (armature) rotation is caused by the simultaneous attraction and repulsion between the electromagnetic
field in the armature and a fixed magnetic field

Fleming's Left Hand (Motor) Rule
Determines the direction of DC current carrying conductor in a fixed magnetic field
Thumb = Direction of Conductor Motion Fore Finger = Direction of
Fixed Magnetic Field (N to S)
Middle Finger = Conventional Current Direction
