In a simple two-pole DC motor, its split ring

Areverses coil current each full turn
Breverses magnet polarity each half turn
Creverses coil current each half turn
Dmaintains coil current in one direction
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. reverses coil current each half turn
The split-ring commutator reverses coil current each half turn so that the torque keeps the same direction.
