A circuit of a motor basically consists of only coils. The resistance value inside the circuit is very small because only the resistance value (more…)
Since the engine cannot be started by itself, external power is required to generate the first combustion to start it. To start the engine, the starter rotates the crankshaft via the ring gear.
