What describes the electric motor effect?

The electric motor effect is described accurately by the scenario where a coil of wire moves due to the magnetic field. This phenomenon occurs when a current-carrying conductor, such as a coil of wire, is placed in a magnetic field. The interaction between the magnetic field and the current creates a force on the wire, causing it to move. This is fundamental to how electric motors operate, as they convert electrical energy into mechanical energy by leveraging the forces acting on a coil within a magnetic field.

In contrast, generating an electric current involves different principles, such as electromagnetic induction, and does not describe the motor effect. Meanwhile, the creation of a magnetic field in a series circuit and the repulsion of a wire by a magnet do not encapsulate the full scope of the electric motor effect, which specifically emphasizes the motion resulting from the interaction of electric current and magnetic fields.
