Which of the following accurately describes how a magnetic motor works

a
A set of electric coils are placed in a magnetic field. When a current passes through the wire, it creates a reaction that causes the atoms to being to shift into place
b
A set of electric coils are placed in a magnetic field. When a current passes through them, they create a magnetic field which interacts with the first magnetic field, causing the set of coils to rotate
c
A set of magnets are placed in an electric field. As the current increases or decreases, the strength of the electric field changes, causing the magnet to be more or less moved by the field
d
A set of magnets are placed in an electric field. A current is run through the magnets, thus increasing their magnetic fields. Once the magnetic field is increased, the magnets can be manipulated by the electric field by being guided around

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. A set of magnets are placed in an electric field. As the current increases or decreases, the strength of the electric field changes, causing the magnet to be more or less moved by the field

Step-by-step explanation:

A permanent magnet motor is an electric motor that utilizes permanent magnets combined with a coil of electric wire winding rather than there being only the the electric wire windings in the motor

The principle of operation of a permanent magnet motor involves the rotation of a magnetic rotor by the electromagnetic force generated from the outer stator coil when power is supplied to the stator windings from an external source.
