SUMMARY
The graph of magnetic flux for a DC motor from 0 to 360 degrees, with the coils' initial position parallel to the magnetic field, exhibits a sinusoidal pattern. As the rotor rotates, the magnetic flux increases and decreases in a periodic manner, reflecting the interaction between the magnetic field and the armature coils. This behavior is crucial for understanding the performance and efficiency of DC motors in various applications.
