When a wire has an electric current run through it it produces a magnetic feild.
A coil of wire (also called a selonoid) produces a strong magnetic feild perpindicular to the turns of wire when a current is run through it.
This is also known as electric magnet.
Its also worthy to note that speakers work based off of this concept
What else can I help you with?
Why was the wire - wrapped nail able to pick up the paper clips?
The wire-wrapped nail was able to pick up the paper clips because the wire acts as a magnet when an electric current flows through it, creating a magnetic field that attracts the paper clips. This is an example of how electromagnetism can be used to manipulate magnetic objects.
What happens when a coil or wire is connected to a source of direct current?
Since the resistance of ordinary wire is so small, a large current (Amps) flows in the coil. It most likely stresses the power supply, and the wire most likely gets hot. But as long as the hook-up lasts, you've got a significant magnetic field inside the coil. You can pick up pins, needles, and paper clips with it, and shoot nails through the center along the axis of the coil when the DC is switched on.
Iron nail electromagnet why is it magnetic?
When an electric current flows through a coil of wire wound around an iron nail, it induces a magnetic field in the nail. This is because the nail becomes magnetized due to the alignment of its magnetic domains. The iron nail retains its magnetic properties as long as the current continues to flow through the coil.
What a experimental procedure of a electromagnet?
To conduct an experiment on an electromagnet, you can start by wrapping an insulated copper wire around an iron nail. Connect the wire to a power source such as a battery. When the current flows through the wire, it creates a magnetic field, turning the nail into a temporary magnet. You can test the strength of the electromagnet by observing how many paper clips it can pick up.
What is moved up or down repeatedly through a coil of wire an alternating current is inducted in the wire?
A magnet or magnetic field is moved up or down repeatedly through a coil of wire, inducing an alternating current in the wire through electromagnetic induction.
Why was the wire wrapped nail able to pick up the paper clips or sefety pins?
to transfer the energy passes from the wire so that the nail able to pick up the paper clips
What might prevent a 1989 Jeep Cherokee from getting spark?
could be.... coil ... coil wire or... pick up coil.. not working
How does make magnet?
Electromagnets work when copper coil is wrapped around a nail and connected to a cell and turned on, the electrons travelling through the wire create a magnetic field allowing you to pick things like nails up.
1991 Dodge Dakota that won't START - I have already replaced the pick-up in the distributor and coil and coil wire you have power to the coil but there is not power coming out of the coil - help?
Replace the ECU.
Why does an iron nail behaves like temporary magnet if insulated copper wire is wound around it?
which end of a magnet will pick up an iron nail?

Where does spark come from on a 90 dodge ram 318?
The computer uses the pick up plate in the distributor to know when to activated the coil to cause a spark to go down the coil wire to the distributor cap and through the cap and rotor to an individual plug wire to the spark plug.The computer uses the pick up plate in the distributor to know when to activated the coil to cause a spark to go down the coil wire to the distributor cap and through the cap and rotor to an individual plug wire to the spark plug.
When does the wire wrapped nail pick up paper clips?
When both positive and Negative charged wire ends touch it. (Try it, it's fun)
Does a 1988 Chevy 1500 silverado have a crank sensor?
NO it does not. If it's not firing then you need to check the ignition module, pick-up coil and the coil. Could just have a bad coil wire......

How do you change a pick up coil on a 88 GMC 2500 pickup?
how to changr pick up coil 88 vandura
Fiero no spark2.5Li replaced the module nothing took out distributor cleaned with memory paper on pick-up coil contacts really thought that was it for sure but nothing put another computer in nope?
Are you sure the pick up is good? If your not sure replace it. You can check the ohms on the pick up coil they should be between 500 and 1500. Check the rotor button for a hole burnt in it. Check the coil and coil wire. WHAT THE HECK R U PPLS TALKING ABOUT???
