In synchronous EV motors, the rotor turns at the same speed as the rotational magnetic ... feature rotors that lag behind the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator. Induction motors ...

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM ... The fixed magnetic field generated by the permanent magnets interacts with a rotating magnetic field within the stator to create motion and ...

But, there may be another way, albeit a rather special case, where a magnet can not only be levitated, but locked in place using a rotating magnetic field. The video shows a demonstration of how ...
