Interesting question. The answer is maybe - it depends on the construction of the electromagnet. the key is the electromagnet must be water proof, and the wiring used to create the magnet must be insulated from water - if this is not done, then current will flow through the water, which will decay the effectiveness of the electromagnet, along with robbing it of strength due to a decrease in current through the magnet.

What happens if a magnet gets wet?
Yes, a magnet will work under water. To cite one example, a magnet on a string out on the docks is sometimes used to retrieve car keys that tourists sometimes accidently drop into the water.
Can you cut a magnet and the magnet still work?
No. You'll end up with two smaller magnets, and each will have less than half the magnetic field strength of the original magnet.
Can you move a can without touching it?
Yes, using a magnet or wind or water.
How do you separate iron oxide and salt water?
A strong magnet or electromagnet can be used to hold the iron oxide(rust) in place as the water is poured off. Care should be taken to bring all of the rust near the magnet in order to collect it all.
What might happen if you drop a permanent magnet or strike it hard?
A permanent magnet may become unmagnetized because a shock it will have.
Can a magnet pick up a paper clip when both are under water?
Yes, a magnet can still pick up a paper clip even when both are under water because water does not significantly affect the magnetic force between the magnet and the paper clip.
What happens if a magnet gets wet?
Yes, a magnet will work under water. To cite one example, a magnet on a string out on the docks is sometimes used to retrieve car keys that tourists sometimes accidently drop into the water.
Will rinsing off Bakugan under water once cause rusting or problems with the magnet?
no
How can be destroyed?
---- Magnetism can be destroyed by following methods:---- * By heating the magnet, * By hammering the magnet.--->In accordance to this point...allowing the magnet to fall violently* By keeping similar poles of magnets together for a long time. * [not sure about this]by keeping magnet under running water.
Would magnets attract to a paperclip under water?
magnets dont lose their magnetism under water. According to me magnets do attract paper under water.
Do water magnets work?
Yes. Water is diamagnetic, but it impedes a magnet's strength only very slightly, not to a significant degree.
If you drop a magnet it will?
If you drop a magnet it will hit the object under it
Can a Magnet work in any kind of liquid?
I think if you put a magnet in a liquid i think it is not going to work again. I think if you put a magnet in a liquid i think it is not going to work again.
How will I get my gold wedding ring that has fallen down between pipes in the bathroom under the floor boards if a magnet won't work?
get a plumber
Is it true if a magnet is floated in a cork in water?
Yes, a magnet can float on a cork in water because the cork provides buoyancy to keep the magnet afloat. The buoyant force of the water supports the weight of the cork and the magnet, allowing them to float together.
Will a magnet work on Platinum?
No
Can a magnet pass through water?
The magnet should be able to extract iron out of water as water and iron are not chemically combined. If the water and iron would have chemically combined then it would be futile to separate them using a magnet. Note that the stronger the magnet the more iron will be removed from water.
