First let's take a look at an electromagnet. Some are powered by a direct current or (d.c.) A solenoid is a "sucking magnet," put power to your coil and iron inside will be pulled rapidly inside. Another interesting property is easily demonstrated with a coil wire and a strong magnet. Connect the leads of the coil to a meter that will measure micro amperes. Insert a steel nail through the coil and stroke the magnet back and forth across the coil. The meter will indicate a few micro amperes with each stroke. The direction of the current, (polarity) will reverse on the back strokes. What an electromagnet can do is produce a potential difference of up to several volts. When the electromagnet is set up in a fashion that resembles a small electric motor attach a propeller to the shaft allowing the wind to turn the coil inside of the magnet housing thus generating voltage.

What does an electromagnet operator do to release metal attached to the electromagnet?
An electromagnet operator can release metal attached to the electromagnet by turning off the electric current flowing through the electromagnet coils. This de-energizes the electromagnet, causing the magnetic field to dissipate and the metal object to fall off.
What is a mental center of an electromagnet is called?
The mental center of an electromagnet is called the magnetic pole. It is the point on the electromagnet where the magnetic field is concentrated and strongest.
Can quarters stick to a homemade electromagnet?
Yes, quarters can stick to a homemade electromagnet as long as the electromagnet is strong enough to attract the metal in the quarters. The strength of the electromagnet will determine how well it can attract and hold onto the quarters.
What is the name of the rotating electromagnet in an alternator?
The rotating electromagnet in an alternator is called the rotor.
What does an electromagnet pick up?
Iron, Nickel, Cobalt

Why electromagnet is used for separating plastic bags?
An electromagnet can attract the metal, leaving the plastic behind.An electromagnet can attract the metal, leaving the plastic behind.An electromagnet can attract the metal, leaving the plastic behind.An electromagnet can attract the metal, leaving the plastic behind.
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.
Who built the first electromagnet?
Linc Robinson built the first electromagnet.
When was the electromagnet invented?
The electromagnet was invented in the year 1850 by william sturgeon :)
What is the difference between electromagnetism and electromagnet?
electromagnetism is the force an electromagnet is the object
An advantage of an electromagnet (in contrast to a bar magnet) is?
An electromagnet can be turned on and off.
What determines where electromagnet waves fall on the electromagnet spectrum?
Frequency determines this.
