This would be an Electromagnet...... If the battery is disconnected, then the iron bar will become a permanent magnet.
it is called an electromagnet
An electromagnet.
You get a battery, switch, nail and copper wire. You connect one end of the battery to the switch and the other end to the nail that is wrapped with some copper wire. The end of the switch that isn't connected you connect to the electromagnet.
An electromagnet is a device that produces a magnetic field with the use of DC electricity. A simple electromagnet has a coil of wire wrapped around an iron core. A simple experiment would be to wrap a copper wire around an iron nail then connect both ends of the wire to a small battery. You will notice the nail is magnetized as long as the battery is connected.

Nothing will happen. Your question is not properly worded.
a battery, wires, a solenoid wrapped around an iron core Study Island answer... Answeres By: Blake A. H.
You would succeed in making a simple electro-magnet that uses the copper wire as a conducter for the elctricity that comes from the battery,the nail on coming in contact with the wire which is wrapped around it harnesses the elecric power being provided by the battery via the copper wire and an magnetic field around the nail is created, hence the name electro-magnet!
An electromagnet can be made simply. When an electric current flows in a wire it creates a magnetic field around the wire. By winding the wire into a coil we can strengthen the magnetic field. Electromagnets are made from coils like this.
Hell I personally have all of them wrapped into one. ...
Of coarse its not wrapped silly XD
