What is produced when a coil of wire is wrapped around an iron core?

electromagnet


What is a device that has an iron center wrapped in coil of wires?

This is a basic description of an electromagnet. Apply a voltage (direct current) to the coil, and a magnetic field will develop around the coil and be "conducted" through the iron core to create that electromagnet.


Produced by a coil of current-carrying wire wrapped around an iron core?

It makes an electromagnet.


When an electric current is run through wires wrapped around an iron core creates what?

What has a wire-wrapped core?

A coil of wire or a coil in the shape of a cylinder is a typical shape for an electromagnet (or a solenoid). The strength of the magnetic field of an electromagnet can be increased significantly if the coil is wrapped around an iron core. This configuration may be called an inductor when used as an element of an electrical circuit.


What is the effect of increasing the number of coil of wire wrapped around the core of an electromagnet?

This causes the power of the electromagnet to be increased.

A coil of wire with an electric current in it?

A solenoid. An electromagnet is wire wrapped around a core of iron (usually). The wrapped wire itself is called the solenoid.

Does the strength of an electromagnet depend on the number of volts passing through the wire or the number of coils of wire wrapped around the iron core?

The strength of an electromagnet depends on: -- The magnitude of the current through the wire. (This depends on the voltage between the ends of the wire.) -- The number of turns of wire in the coil wrapped around the iron core.


How are electromagnets formed?

A magnet consisting essentially of a coil of insulated wire wrapped around a soft iron core that is magnetized only when current flows through the wire.


How do you use electromagnet in a sentence?

Electromagnetism occurs when an electric current is sent through a coil of copper wire that is wrapped round an iron core.
