An electromagnet is switched on by passing an electric current through its coil, which generates a magnetic field. To switch it off, the current is simply disconnected, causing the magnetic field to collapse. This on/off switching allows for control of the magnetic force produced by the electromagnet.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to an electromagnet when the electricity supplying it is switched off?
When the electricity supplying an electromagnet is switched off, the magnetic field produced by the electromagnet disappears. This means that the electromagnet loses its magnetic properties and no longer attracts or repels magnetic materials.
When the electric current is switched off the metal sticking to the electromagnet drops offexplain why this happens?
When the electric current is switched off, the electromagnet loses its magnetic field, causing the metal material to no longer be attracted to the magnet. This results in the metal dropping off from the electromagnet due to the absence of the magnetic force that was previously holding it in place.
What does a current carrying coil with an iron core make?
A current carrying coil with an iron core creates an electromagnet. The iron core enhances the magnetic field strength produced by the coil, making it more effective for applications like electric motors, transformers, and solenoids.
Is a horseshoe electromagnet bar magnet or a magnet pole a example of a temporary magnet?
A horseshoe electromagnet is an example of a temporary magnet because it only exhibits magnetic properties when an electric current is passed through it. When the current is turned off, the magnetism disappears.
What is the difference from a normal magnet to an electromagnet?
A normal magnet is a static magnet that produces a magnetic field without needing an external power source. In contrast, an electromagnet is a magnet created by passing an electric current through a coil of wire, producing a magnetic field that can be turned on and off by controlling the electric current.
What happens to an electromagnet when the electricity supplying it is switched off?
When the electricity supplying an electromagnet is switched off, the magnetic field produced by the electromagnet disappears. This means that the electromagnet loses its magnetic properties and no longer attracts or repels magnetic materials.
What will happen if you put a compass next to an electromagnet that is switched?
the compass's needle will point at the electromagnet
Will iron filing get attracted to an electromagnet when it is switched on?
Yes

Why electromagnet is different from a permanent magnet because an electromagnet what?
Mainly in that the electromagnet is NOT permanent. In other words, it can be switched on and off.Another relevant difference is that the electromagnet constantly requires power, at least while it is on.
What is a magnet created using electric current?
An electromagnet. Unlike other magnets it can be switched on and off.
A magnet can be switch on and off?
An electromagnet can - for example in scrapyards where a crane picks up a car with power on, then drops it when power switched off.
What does a current carrying coil with an iron core make?
A current carrying coil with an iron core creates an electromagnet. The iron core enhances the magnetic field strength produced by the coil, making it more effective for applications like electric motors, transformers, and solenoids.
Is a horseshoe electromagnet bar magnet or a magnet pole a example of a temporary magnet?
A horseshoe electromagnet is an example of a temporary magnet because it only exhibits magnetic properties when an electric current is passed through it. When the current is turned off, the magnetism disappears.
Describe how you think an electromagnet can be used to make a stack of scrapped cars three cars high?
An electromagnet's switched can be turned on, so that it can induce magnetism. Anelectromagnetcaneasilymake a stack of three carsbecausecar body is made a steel. Electromagnet and Steel develop a good power of magnetism.
How is electromagnet the same as permanent?
An electromagnet is only magnetic while current is flowing through the coils. A permanent magnet is always magnetic, and does not need electricity. An example of an electromagnet at work is in a metal scrape yard, where a large electromagnet is used by a crane operator to lift ferrous metals into a crusher (scrapped cars, for instance). The metal drops into the crusher when the electricity is switched off by the crane operator. Therefore, they are only really similar when both are magnetised.
Why is a electromagnet not a permanent magnet?
An electromagnet only retains major magnetic properties when a current is being run through it.AnswerWhether a material makes a permanent or temporary magnet depends on the nature of the ferromagnetic material involved. For example a coil with a steel core will retain much of its magnetic flux density when the current is switched off, whereas a coil with an iron core will lose most of its magnetic flux density when the current is switched off.
