The brushless DC motor contains a ____, a stator, and the electronics necessary to change direct current into three-phase alternating current.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The brushless DC motor contains a permanent magnet rotor, which is what creates the magnetic field to drive rotation. The stator and electronics convert DC to AC in order to power the motor. Option A refers to an alternator, which is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. Option B refers to an induction generator, which is used to generate electricity by using a rotating magnetic field to induce electrical current in a stationary coil of wire. Option D refers to a type of magnet that is commonly used in motors, but does not describe any specific component of the brushless DC motor. Therefore, the best choice is C.

The Brushless DC Motor Contains a ____, a Stator, and the Electronics
