Question by wilbzion G: Would it be possible that a magnetic motor can be used as an alternative source of electricity?
Example is a 110 v light bulb can light with the use of magnetic motor? can it be applicable with cars too?
Best answer:
Answer by Fast Eddie
Yes, in principle you can use an electric motor to generate electrical energy. You need however mechanical energy to spin the motor.

Uhh… say what?
First of all, a magnetic motor is not a source of electricity. A motor is a consumer of electricity. What you’re thinking of is a generator, not a motor. A generator by definition generates or produces electricity. A motor by definition uses electricity.
Secondly, magnetic generators have been used to produce electricity for decades. How do you think your home is lit up? How do you think we get our electric supply?!? Hello, which rock have you been hiding under for the past 10 years (how old are you again?)?
TANSTAAFL.
What mechanical process is providing the energy to turn the magnetic generator?
Yes, when you apply the brakes on a Toyota Prius a “magnetic motor” of sorts (galled a generator) is engaged and spins and charges the battery which of course later runs the car at low speeds.
Yes, and you can demonstrate it yourself.
1: get yourself a small d.c motor (they’re in all sorts of things)
2: connect its wires to a flashlight bulb
3: spin the motor’s shaft
The lightbulb will illuminate, with its brightness dependent on how fast you spin the motor.
You can do the same thing with a speaker. Shouting into (or tapping) the speaker will make the light flash.
