Key Terms

Stator
The stationary part of an electric motor that generates a magnetic field.

Example: The stator in a motor is essential for its operation.

Bearing
A machine element that supports and reduces friction between moving parts.

Example: Ball bearings are commonly used in bicycles.

Magnetic Field
A field around a magnet where magnetic forces can be observed.

Example: The magnetic field of the Earth protects us from solar radiation.

Friction
The resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another.

Example: Friction between the tires and the road allows cars to move.

Rotor
The rotating part of an electric motor that interacts with the stator.

Example: The rotor spins to generate electricity in a generator.

Efficiency
The ratio of useful work performed by a machine to the total energy input.

Example: Higher efficiency means less energy wasted in motors.
