Do amps volts or watts affect electric magnet strength?
An electromagnet becomes stronger when the current through it increases, i.e. the Amps.
What magnet is created by an electric current?
Current flow
What is a magnet that is creadted from electric current through a wire?
Electro-Magnet
How does an electric current make a magnet?
the electric current is generated by the electric field. thus by the left hand rule when current is passed through a conductor a magnetic field is generated around it so that it is a similar act of a magnet. thus it seems to be a magnet.
Does an electric current produce a magnet?
Yes.
Can a magnet stop an electric current?
yes
What is a magnet created when electric current flows through a coil of wire?
A magnet created when electric current flows through a coil of wire is called an electromagnet.
A magnet can generate an electric current in a wire if the magnet is close enough to the wire and if the magnet is also?
strong
What is the definition of eletro magnet?
A magnet that becomes energised when an electric current is passed through it.
How can a magnet be used to create an electric current?
An electrical current will flow in a conductor, when a magnet is moved next to a conductor - or when the conductor is moved next to the magnet.
How can the strength of a scrap heap magnet vary?
The strength of a scrap heap magnet vary depending on the strength of the current or number of "turns" in its primary coil. Increasing either or both of these makes the magnet stronger.
Is not a permanent magnet?
An electromagnet is a magnet while an electric current is running through the coil. Turn off the current and it is no longer magnetised, and is, therefore, not a permanent magnet.
