1 torque - The force that produces rotation

2 the strength of the magnetic field, the number of turns on the coil, and the position of the coil in the field. - The amount of torque developed in a coil depends on several factors including ___

3 split field motor - One method for reversing the direction of rotation employs two field windings wound in opposite directions on the same pole.
