What was wrapped around an iron bar to create the first electromagnet?
Coils of wire
What is produced when a coil of wire is wrapped around an iron core?
electromagnet
What was wrapped an iron bar to create the first electromagnet?
Coils of wire
An electromagnet would have the greatest strength if its wire were wrapped around a core made of what?
iron
Produced by a coil of current-carrying wire wrapped around an iron core?
It makes an electromagnet.

What is the name of a magnet that has coils of wire carrying current wrapped around an iron core?
"Electromagnet"
What does an enameled wire that's wrapped around an iron nail connected to an electrical circuit create?
An electromagnet.
Who invented the first electromagnet motor?
British scientist William Sturgeon invented the electromagnet in 1824.[7][8] His first electromagnet was a horseshoe-shaped piece of iron that was wrapped with about 18 turns of bare copper wire
Does the strength of an electromagnet depend on the number of volts passing through the wire or the number of coils of wire wrapped around the iron core?
The strength of an electromagnet depends on: -- The magnitude of the current through the wire. (This depends on the voltage between the ends of the wire.) -- The number of turns of wire in the coil wrapped around the iron core.
What is a device that has an iron center wrapped in coil of wires?
This is a basic description of an electromagnet. Apply a voltage (direct current) to the coil, and a magnetic field will develop around the coil and be "conducted" through the iron core to create that electromagnet.
What has a wire-wrapped core?
A coil of wire or a coil in the shape of a cylinder is a typical shape for an electromagnet (or a solenoid). The strength of the magnetic field of an electromagnet can be increased significantly if the coil is wrapped around an iron core. This configuration may be called an inductor when used as an element of an electrical circuit.
What will happen if a wire is wrapped around a nail a lot of times?
If the nail is iron and you pass an electric current through the wire then you have an electromagnet.
