An '''electric motor''' is a device which converts electrical energy into kinetic and mechanical energy. Most electric motors utilise the [[motor effect]] in the collective deflection of a flow of electrons through a wire to turn a coil, however other models employ more ingenious devices such as the induction of [[eddy currents]].
