You can change the strength of an electromagnet 3 ways. You can increase the amount of current (Amperes) running through your wire. You can increase the number of turns, or, if insulated, number of layers of turns on your wire coil. Last you can change the core - material, density, diameter, length.

Why are magnets used?

Electro magnets can be very useful to carry heavy loads of iron and metal from one side of a factory to another. Electro-magnets are formed by shooting electricity through a coil of copper.

yes


How are electro magnets different from other magnets?

Electromagnets use electricity to create a magnetic field, which can be turned on and off. They are typically stronger than permanent magnets. In contrast, permanent magnets, like those made of iron or nickel, are always magnetic without the need for an external power source.

Does stacking magnets make them stronger?

No, stacking magnets does not make them stronger. Magnets have a set strength based on their material and size, and stacking them does not increase this strength.
