Where are temporary magnets used?
It makes sense that since some magnets are called "permanent magnets," other magnets should be called "temporary magnets." But since when did English make sense? We usually call them "electromagnets" instead. Electromagnets are used in most electric motors, and cranes that lift scrap metal. They're also used in relays and the write heads of tape recorders (including video tape recorders).
5 appliances that have magnets or electromagnets in them?
Every appliance that has a motor in it uses electromagnets. The only appliance that I can think of right now that does not use electromagnets in it is a toaster and a bus. I WANT A COOKIEAND A TOASTER
What are some examples of some real life electromagnets?
All the electric motors/generators in your life. For instance: an electric egg-beater, the "alternator" and the starter in your car, vacuum cleaners.
Uses of electromagnets in everyday living?
Electromagnets play vital roles in everyday life. They power electric motors in appliances, produce sound in speakers, and enable magnetic door locks for security. Medical imaging devices like MRI machines rely on electromagnets, and maglev trains use them for propulsion. Additionally, electromagnets are utilized in scrapyard cranes for efficient lifting of metallic objects. These applications demonstrate the widespread importance of electromagnets in modern society.
What are some items that use electromagnets?
house hold stuff
What are some object are magnets?
electromagnets are used in batteries to convert energy into electricity
What are electromagnets used to record information on?
Electromagnets...electromagnets are magnets attract, or pull, some kinds of metal objects. Stronger magnets exert a greater pull on the objects they attract. Sometimes it would be useful if you could turn off a magnet when you did not want it to attract objects. That is what an electromagnet can do. Some electromagnets .in power plants and factories electromagnets are very large. You can make a small, simple electromagnet in school or at home.
Does an electric egg beater contain magnets?
Yes, an electric egg beater will have some kind of magnets in it. These may be permanent magnets, or may be electromagnets, but the motor in the appliance will have to have some kind of magnets in it to operate on electricity.
What makes electromagnets useful?
Electromagnets are useful because some machines need magnets that can stop being magnetic. In junkyards, some machines need to pick up metallic objects, so they need magnets that can turn on and off, which is where a electromagnet becomes useful.
What are some devices that use electromagnetism?
Electromagnets in scrapyards are used to carry metal around. Electromagnets are better than normal magnets because you can turn the current on and off.
Where are temporary magnets used?

Do all magnets have the same power?
No, some are more powerful than others, as there are your normal refrigerator magnets that hold a few sheets of paper and there are super electromagnets that can hold cars.
What is most likely to be attracted by a magnet?
Iron, nickel and some of their alloys are attracted to magnets (only some types of steel). Also, the oppositely charged poles of other magnets or electromagnets.
How are magnets used in an x-ray?
We often see some kind of electromagnets used to spin the cathode of an X-ray tube.
Why do some electromagnets repel rather than attract?
SOME Electromagnet like permanent magnets have two poles(north/south). Likewise the rules for SOME Electromagnets are the same as those of a permanent magnet(same poles repel, different poles attract).
What do electromagnets attract?
Unlike normal magnets, electromagnets attract just someof the alloys that contain iron, such as steel and iron, but not all of them. Electromagnets do not attract aluminium, copper, titanium,brass, bronze, tin, nickel, platinum, gold, silver, lead or pewter.Contrary to some opinions, electromagnets cannot attract cardboard.See also the related question.
Do televisions have magnets in them?
Yes, at least in the speakers. Some older televisions used them to help direct the electron beam, though mostly electromagnets were used for that.
