An electric motor is an electrical machine which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy is done by an electric generator. In normal most electric motors operate through the interaction between an electric motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force within the motor. In some applications, such as in the transportation industry with traction motors, electric motors can operate in both motoring and generating or braking modes to also produce electrical energy from mechanical energy.
