They are an electromagnet which is a wire coil wound outside a large iron core. When the coil is energized with electricity by the crane operator it creates magnetism and when the power is switched off the magnetism stops. This type of magnet is what makes a car starter engage, electrical solenoids are a version and many common household items utilize electromagnets. Trunk release on your car, etc.
A construction crane uses a large hook, or a wrecking ball.
Electro Magnets are the controllable type of magnet used. It may be possible but not practical to use rare earth magnets.
Because you know how magnets work.
Well, rusty magnets do not work as well as a normal magnet. But they can work. And yes try can repel but if you use rusty magnets, it won't work as well. I hope this helped! :)
