An electromagnet can be made simply. When an electric current flows in a wire it creates a magnetic field around the wire. By winding the wire into a coil we can strengthen the magnetic field. Electromagnets are made from coils like this.

Which magnet made by an electric current flowing through wires?
Electromagnet.
Is an electric bell a permanent magnet?
An electo-magnet is used in an electric bell.
Does an electric current produce a magnet?
Yes.
Is the magnet in a compass a permanent magnet or a electromagnet?
It is a permanent magnet. Electromagnets(as the name suggests) requires an electric source to become a magnet, when the power source is turned off it will not function as a magnet.
Is a magnet a conductor?
A magnet will conduct electricity.
Can a magnet be made with electric currents?
theres no answer
What controls the strength of a magnet made with electric current?
The strength of a magnet(electromagnet) made by flowing electric current through a conducting coil depends on magnitude of current. . .
What is a magnet made by electric current?
An electromagnet.
What kind of magnet is a magnet made from a steel paper clip?
If it has been magnetized by another magnet, then it is just a temporary magnet, but if it uses an electric current, then it is an electro-magnet.
Which magnet made by an electric current flowing through wires?
Electromagnet.
Is an electric bell a permanent magnet?
An electo-magnet is used in an electric bell.
What is a magnet that is creadted from electric current through a wire?
Electro-Magnet
How is a permanent magnet made?
The material from which the magnet is to be made is heated so that it is above what is called the curie temperature. The material is then allowed to cool in a magnetic field. The magnetic field can be made by coiling wire and passing an electric current through it.
A magnet can generate an electric current in a wire if the magnet is close enough to the wire and if the magnet is also?
strong

magnet
Hans christian oersted made the hypothesis that when an electric current flowed through a wire it acted like a?
magnet
What does electromagnetic mean?
An electromagnet is a magnet caused by electricity.
