Magnets. No one in the world knows how they work. All the people who did were exterminated upon discovery of how they work.

Wait wait I think I've got this one. In a flowing electric charge, magnetic fields kind of rotate perpendicularly around it.
nvm fuck it its a miracle
That's cool. I am no expert but, does this drain the battery? I feel rather stupid for asking but somebody might now. I clearly do not.

Yes but very little, if I'm not mistaken.
It could run it for quite a while.

Yes, of course it does. Otherwise, you have solved the world's energy crisis.
This is effectively a motor.
Lorentzforce, how does it work?

Must try this.

The Xs represent a magnetic field going into your screen. The circles with dots represent the magnetic field coming out of your screen. With this, you can see how the forces act on the wire to turn it. :pseudo:
Edited:
Perhaps the circles and Xs mean the force, I can't remember.
