working principle of induction motor is similar to
transformer. but what makes it to rotate? then why the
transformer doesnt?

Answer Posted / princealekota

In induction motor the field is developed in rotational
direction i.e. since tha motor is circular in shape the
field also developed in rotational direction( design is
like that ). So the rotor follows the magnetic field and
rotation occurs.

But, in transformer there is no circular field is
developed. induction occurs from primary to secondary. so
no rotation takes place in transformer.

i dont know u got or not :P

simply speaking ..... in motor the magnets are placed which
forms a circle (stator).... so field also produces in
circular direction ... rotor follows the path and
rotates.....

in tranformer this not happend because field is not
circular here.
