1) compass --> to tell the direction for travel and architectural purposes.

2) motor/generator --> to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy and vice versa

3) scrap pickup --> it is much easier to clean up or pickup if the scrap metal or nuts and bolts are made of ferromagnetic materials; to find the stub in the wall

4) redirection or focusing ion beams --> very useful in ion implantation, X-ray generation, and industrial instrumentation (CRT for example)

5) relays --> to open and close an electric circuit
