Solution

The split ring in the electric motor also known as a commutator reverses the direction of current flowing through the coil after every half rotation of the coil. Due to this the coil continues to rotate in the same direction.

The detailed working of the DC motor and its parts including split rings will be covered in higher classes.

Hope this helps :)
