Can I run a 115v electric motor on a 110v home outlet?

I picked up a little electric motor at a store that sells an assortment of items you can't find anywhere else. I'd been thinking of doing a project that would require an electric motor and this one seemed to fit the bill. On the side of the motor it shows 115v and 1.5A. Is there anyway to set this up so that it can run on a typical home electrical outlet? It has a positive and a negative on the case and a green and yellow wire with an eyelet that I assume is a ground wire. I rigged it up with an old wire I spliced and plugged it in and it moved a fraction of an inch and that was it. It doesn't appear nor smell as though it's burnt up and when tested with a circuit tester shows it's got a complete circuit.

Yes, you can. You'll find that if you plug a volt meter into a wall socket that is producing between 110V and 128V. The motor you plan to use is only drawing 1.5 amps which isn't much more than a computer or lamp. I hope that helps.
