Answer:

electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

An electric motor contains a permanent magnet and an electromagnet. As the poles of the electromagnet and the permanent magnet constantly repel each other, the electric motor makes a rotational motion. The increase in current or the increase in power of the magnet causes the electric motor to rotate faster.
