veryinteresting.

cannotproducerotation(onlyarevolvingfluxcanproduce
rotation).Thatiswhyasinglephasemotorisnotself
starting.

However,iftherotorofsuchamachineisgivenaninitial
start by hand (or small motor) or otherwise in either
direction, then immediately a torque arises and the
motor accelerates to its final speed (unless the applied
torqueistoohigh).
