What objects can be picked up by an electromagnet?
Objects made of iron, steel, nickel, and cobalt can be picked up by an electromagnet. These materials have magnetic properties that allow them to be attracted to the magnet when it is energized with an electric current. Other non-magnetic materials, such as wood or plastic, will not be attracted to an electromagnet.
Is copper attracted to a magnet?
No, copper is not attracted to a magnet.
Would scrap metal be attracted to electromagnet?
Yes, scrap metal can be attracted to an electromagnet because when an electric current passes through the coil of wire in the electromagnet, it creates a magnetic field that can attract ferromagnetic materials like iron and steel.
Why were some objects attracted by the electromagnet?
Objects were attracted to the electromagnet because the electric current running through the coil generated a magnetic field. This magnetic field magnetized the objects, causing them to be pulled towards the electromagnet.
Is electromagnet a permanent magnet?
No, an electromagnet is not a permanent magnet. It is a magnet that produces a magnetic field when an electric current is passed through it, and the magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off.
What does the switch do to the electro magnet?
The switch is turned on to activate the electromagnet, and metal is attracted. Turning off the switch stops the electromagnet from working, and metal is no longer attracted.
How does the electromagnet used in separators?
Electromagnets are used to separate ferrous metals (containing iron) and attracted to a magnet, from non-ferrous metals (not containing iron) which are not attracted to a magnet.
What will be attracted or repelled by a magnet?
An aluminum wire carrying current An electromagnet An iron pipe (Apex)
Would silicon be attracted by a magnet?
No it would not be attracted by a magnet bc it is non metal
Is an electromagnet likely to be attracted to a magnet?
An electromagnet is simply a device that will create a magnetic field when electricity is run through it (basically a normal magnet, but you need to plug it in). Depending on the magnetic charges of the electromagnet and the regular magnet, it should either attract or repulse like magnets normally do to one another.
What objects can be picked up by an electromagnet?
Objects made of iron, steel, nickel, and cobalt can be picked up by an electromagnet.

If an electromagnet were used instead of a bar magnet to pick up nails the electromagnet would do what?
It will pick up the nails the same way a bar magnet would do!
How is an electromagnet different a bar magnet?
a electromagnet is bigger than a bar magnet
Which is better a permanent magnet or an electromagnet?
electromagnet
Why are electromagnets used instead of a permanent one?
sometimes in magnetic sepration etc electromagnets are more useful than permanent one as first magnet is used to seprate metallic waste and then its turned off so that attracted waste falls off at desired place so here permanent magnets are not that use full as electromagnet as in permanent magnet waste would get attracted but it would not fall. so electromagnet is more useful than permanent one.
Does a magnet stick to zinc?
No. Only to iron and other ferromagnetic materials. Or if you form the aluminum into a coil and pass a current through it, then you have an electromagnet, which would be attracted to a magnet.
Is a permanent magnet called a hard magnet or a electromagnet?
Perminant magnet
