Describe the main features of a DC electric motor and the role of each feature - Electrical motors can be classified as either: o DC (direct current) motors: or o AC (alternating current) motors - The commutator DC motor consists of: o An Armature (the rotor) o A magnetic field produced by permanent magnets or by electromagnets. It is equivalent to the stator o A commutator to reverse the direction of the current o Connecting brushes to take the current to and from the armature - The

many concerns and goals for myself as a student. I am committed to success here at school as well as at home. I’m walking into a field I know absolutely nothing about. My most computer experience I have is Netflix. The field I’ve chosen to study is Electrical Engineering. I believe that my lack of knowledge is a good thing because my brain is a blank slate, but at the same time it’s a hindrance when surrounded by people who know what they are doing. At times I feel lost because of my lack of general

BATTERY SAFETY AND OHMS LAW Battery Safety Basics- Do not overcharge or over-discharge. When the charger indicates that the batteries have been fully charged, you can remove them from the charger. Leaving batteries in a charger all night long or longer can cause them to be overcharged, which can result in battery failure (depending on the charger). Charging your battery over 4.25 volts can shorten its life-cycle and going over 4.5 volts can cause it to burst. Cease using your charger if this
