Why did this simple electric motor work?
The current from the battery induces a magnetic field in the copper loop, turning it into an electromagnet that repels from/attracts to the permanent magnet
The electromagnet on top of the battery pulls on the magnetic copper wire
The magnet induces a current in the copper loop which makes it rotate.

How are electromagnets different from permanent magnets?
magnets can be turned on/off
you can turn an electromagnet on/off
magnets are more powerful
magnets have a North and South pole
