Any conductor carrying an electric current induces a magnetic field. If the conductor is wrapped around an iron core, the magnetic field produced can be used for many uses.
Most people have seen scrap-yard magnets used for picking up iron and steel scrap. Electromagnets are also used as electrical relays, speakers, mechanical movements, and metal separators in industry. There are thousands of other uses for this very useful device.
A simple electromagnet is constructed by winding a wire around a cylinder (e.g., empty thread spool) and attaching the ends of the wire to the poles (+ and -) of a battery.
An electromagnet is a coil of wire wrapped around a metal core several times. The individual magnetic fields of the individual wires reinforce and strengthen to form one large magnetic field.

What does an electromagnet operator do to release metal attached to the electromagnet?
An electromagnet operator can release metal attached to the electromagnet by turning off the electric current flowing through the electromagnet coils. This de-energizes the electromagnet, causing the magnetic field to dissipate and the metal object to fall off.

Why electromagnet is different from a permanent magnet because an electromagnet what?
Mainly in that the electromagnet is NOT permanent. In other words, it can be switched on and off.Another relevant difference is that the electromagnet constantly requires power, at least while it is on.
Who built the first electromagnet?
Linc Robinson built the first electromagnet.
When was the electromagnet invented?
The electromagnet was invented in the year 1850 by william sturgeon :)
What is the difference between electromagnetism and electromagnet?
electromagnetism is the force an electromagnet is the object
An advantage of an electromagnet (in contrast to a bar magnet) is?
An electromagnet can be turned on and off.
What determines where electromagnet waves fall on the electromagnet spectrum?
Frequency determines this.
