Best Answer

The magnetic field lines (the lines of force) around the magnet sweep the windings in the coil. This induces a voltage in the windings (through induction), and the voltage will try to drive current if it can. There is a bit more to this, but the essential elements are that the magentic lines of force cause voltage in the coil because there is relative motion between the field and the coil.

How are microwaves magnetic?

Inside a microwave oven,microwaves are made when electricity passes through a device called Magnetron.Magnetron uses a strong magnet. The electricity and the magnet make microwave electromagnetic.


How do you design a shaking torch light without batteries?

You need a strong magnet, a big coil of enameled copper wire, a large capacitor, and an efficient LED. And a few odds and ends. The basic design uses the magnet and coil as a generator, or dynamo. As you shake the assembly, the magnet slides up and down past the coil, generating voltage. You rectify the AC voltage and use it to charge the capacitor. You then discharge the cap through the LED to make light.

What is magnetization of iron?

the process of converting iron to a permanent magnet is called magnetization. As iron is a ferro magnetic material it is magnetized by applying strong magnetic field across it , this makes the alignment of all the magnetic dipoles present in iron in the same direction .Even after the external magnetic field is removed they retain their arrangement , thus it becomes a permanent magnet


What are the advantages of Permanent magnet over Electromagnet?

Unlike a permanent magnet, an electromagnet can be turned on and off. One useful advantage of this: Place a metal bar inside the electromagnet, apply current through the electromagnet in one direction, and the magnetic field would move that bar one way -- reverse the current reverses the magnetic field and the bar would move the opposite way. You could use that effect and make an electronically controlled lock for a door.

Do speakers use electromagnets?

Sound is made by pushing air with the cone. A coil of wire is attached to the cone. The "sound"current is passed through the coil. Any current running through magnetic flux causes the coil and cone to move. The larger the magnet the louder the sound. A strong permanent magnet is used. Electromagnets are not used, however

Is copper attracted to magnet?

No, but if you drop a really strong magnet through a narrow copper tube it has a really cool effect (electric charges affecting magnetism)


What is an eletro magnetic?

Electro magnets are only magnetic when an electric current is flowing, unlike a standard magnet which is always magnetic. When the electric current is switched off, the magnetism decays away (collapses). They normally take the form of a fixed core made of soft iron surrounded by a coil of copper wire which acts as the conductor for the electric current. There is a special form of electro magnet which has a movable core instead of it being fixed and this type of electro magnet is called a solenoid. You can see large electro magnets at work at a scrap metal yard, where they are employed on a crane jib to lift and transport scrap iron and steel.

It is a magnet or a electro-magnet. If you are trying to use it as a metal detector then you will need a really strong magnet!
