A magnet is an object that is capable of producing a magnetic field. An interesting fact about magnets is that they are used transduce the vibration of strings on an Electric Guitar in order to amplify the sound.

MRI, magnetic imaging
An electromagnet is a coil of electrical wire that is wrapped around a ferromagnetic coil. The discoverer of electromagnetism was Hans Christian Orsted in 1820. Electromagnets have many use, including to lift heavy metal apparatus and MRI machines.

Permanent magnets and electromagnets both hold their magnetism for a long period?

the answer is false Permanent magnets will hold their magnetism for a long period of time. Electromagnets will only remain magnetic as long as current is flowing through them.


How do electromagnets find uses in a vending machine?

Electromagnets are used in vending machines to deciever real coins from fake ones. Electromagnets will sort counterfeit money from real money, because most counterfeit money is an iron alloy. Iron is magnetic and gets pulled by the electromagnet, while real coins are not effected.


Where is the electromagnet the strongest?

The strongest type of electromagnets are superconducting electromagnets. Usually these superconducting electromagnets are immersed in liquid nitrogen or liquid helium to cool them to near absolute zero. === === For non-superconducting electromagnets, the strongest electromagnets would have the greatest ampere turns over a large area. The core of the magnet would be a highly ferromagnetic material, such as iron, or a mixture of a ferrite and a ceramic. Very strong electromagnets used for lifting machinery have both poles on the bottom side which will maximize the magnetic field produced. Non-superconducting electromagnets will saturate and stop producing magnetic fields at about 2 teslas or so. This is the limit of magnetic strength of ordinary electromagnets.


What common alloy is used to make magnets?

Iron is used for electromagnets.
