Out of these two parts, one part is always stationary while the other moves around it's axis allowing rotation of any object that is attached to it. Taking into consideration the structure of a motor, there are two major parts - The motor itself and the armature. Every fan needs a motor that allows rotational motion. This is mainly because of the diversity in their working principles. This causes the blades of the table fan that are attached to the armature, to move in clockwise direction Because of Newton's 3rd law of motion that states - "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.", the stationary motor gives the armature a push in the opposite direction. The motor is stationary and the armature moves to give motion to the fan blades. Since, the blades of the fan are attached to the motor, the ceiling fan rotates in an anti-clockwise direction. Ceiling fans have a stationary armature and the motor moves in the counter-clockwise direction. In most 'science classrooms' the fans sometimes are sucking air up so as to draw gas fumes away Please type your answer before submitting. It depends if you want the fan to BLOW wind down (spins one way), or suck air up (spins the opposite way). Most ceiling fans actually have a switch which will change their rotation direction. In most 'science classrooms' the fans sometimes are sucking air up so as to draw gas fumes away The rotation direction is not that important, because combined with how the blades are angled, then you would get air motion (wind) going forwards away from the fan. This depends on how the fan blades were designed or angled. Please type your answer before submitting. This causes the blades of the table fan that are attached to the armature, to move in clockwise direction. Because of Newton\'s 3rd law of motion that states - \"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.\", the stationary motor gives the armature a push in the opposite direction.

It also brings a trust factor in students asking questions. Profile - As a participant, you should have an up-to-date profile so that other participants know whom they are speaking to.
