But they are! You can find lifting magnets based on permanent magnets all over in machine shops.

∙ 12y agobecause you wouldnt be able to release it. that is why magnetic cranes use electro magnets. :D

As when we will use permanent magnet for transporting heavy iron machindry so we will not able to keep the material at a side as the permanent magnet will not lose its magnetism . That is why we use electromagnet to transport heavy iron machinery as when we want it can lose its magnetism

Why does a crane use an electromagnet instead of a permanent magnet?
So that the load can be dropped by turning off the current.
What allows people to lift heavy objects with little force?
more than force muscles fibres inside the body are mainly responsible for lifting heavy load.force comes from them to lift the heavy load.
Is it easier to pull an object or lift it?
which requires more energy, pulling a load, lifting, or pushing a load?
What determines how heavy a load a pulley can lift?
The number of ropes supporting the pulley and the strength of those ropes.
What are the benefits of using an electromagnet rather than a bar manet?
An electro-magnet can be switched on & off - a bar magnet is 'permanent' Think of a scrap-yard. If the magnet they use to pick up huge quantities of metal were permanent, they'd have to manually remove every piece. With an electro-magnet, they simply turn the power on to pick up a load, and off when they want to release it. You can make your own electro-magnet with a battery, some wire and a large nail.
Why are permanent magnets not used in cranes to lift heavy loads?
They can become demagnetized by impact, if they're picking up something which is also magnetic (which steel is), the magnet would need to be changed when the polarity was wrong, and then there's the matter of how you detach the magnet once you got the load into place.
What simple machine can lift a heavy load?
A lever
What is used to test permanent magnet generators?
you get it up to operating speed and see if it delivers full load voltage and current. if it has been severely overloaded the permanent magnet can be discharged causing the output to be low

Is It true that an inclined plane allows you to lift a heavy load by using greater force over a shorter distance?
an inclined olane allows you to lift a heavy load by using greater force over a shorter distance

What is the objective of hydraulic jack?
To lift heavy objects with ease.

How do you safely load and unload heavy equipment?
If it's possible, get help from another person or two; don't do it yourself. If it's so heavy you can't even lift it, consider a fork lift or something.
Does an inclined plane lift a heavy load by using more or less force over distance greater?
Less
