It is well known that a conventional Faraday electromotive force (EMF) is proportional to the time derivative of the magnetic flux. The author made a prototype of a motor driven by the current discharged from the capacitor of an LC circuit and performed an investigation of its characteristics, experimentally and theoretically. The results - when motor drive units of a specific design are installed to drive the motor - confirm the phenomenon that unknown EMF components are created and that these can not be explained only with the conventional Faraday EMF model. The unknown EMF is, for the most part, proportional to a function of the second-order time derivative of the magnetic flux applied. It is also evident that there is even a possibility of the existence of components that are dependent on the third-order, or higher, time derivatives of the magnetic flux applied. Furthermore, it must be noted that the direction of the EMF generated is always in the direction that accelerates the current flow discharged from the circuit.
