Arts and sciences, no. 9 [i.e. 10]
Produced by James Simmons
"Home-made Toy Motors" by Alfred Powell Morgan is a practical handbook written in the early 20th century. This guide focuses on teaching readers how to construct small, operational electric motors from simple materials, providing detailed instructions that can be followed by enthusiasts of varying skill levels. The book combines educational content with hands-on projects, making it suitable for aspiring inventors and hobbyists interested in electrical engineering and mechanics. The opening portion of the handbook introduces the basic principles of electric motors and magnetism, explaining how electric currents can be transformed into mechanical power. It lays out the construction process for simple toy electric motors, emphasizing the importance of understanding the fundamental concepts before attempting to build the models. Readers are informed about the types of materials required and the ease of assembly, with initial projects designed to illustrate the operational principles of larger, more complex motors. Overall, it sets the stage for a series of practical experiments aimed at fostering a deeper understanding of electric motor technology. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
Reading ease score: 71.4 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
