The Worldwide Simplest and Oldest Motor: How Does It Operate?
Härtel, Hermann
European Journal of Physics Education, v11 n1 p37-46 2020
Based on a publication of Assis, where the most straightforward and oldest motor is described, first constructed by Ampère, a simple experiment is added to demonstrate once again, why published explanations about its principle of operation and especial the kind how Newton's 3rd principle is used has to be rejected. Ampère's description of his motor and how it operates was explained in detail.
