Introduction: How to Make an Electromagnet
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. Electromagnets usually consist of wire (likely copper) wound into a coil. A current through the wire creates a magnetic field which is concentrated along the center of the coil. The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off. The wire turns are often wound around a magnetic core made from a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material such as iron; the magnetic core concentrates the magnetic flux and makes a more powerful magnet.
Supplies
- A iron core (basically a bar of iron)
- some magnet wires (usually found in motors, fan……)
- battery (to power it )(can also be solar panel, sun included)
Step 1: GET a FERRO CORE
a iron stick (core for your electromagnet)
Step 2: Magnet WIRES!
Use the magnet wires to wrap around the ferro core later
Step 3: WRAP! WRAP! WRAP! ROLL! ROLL! ROLL!
you roll and wrap around the IRON COREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Step 4: Basically Done 👍
enjoy your electromagnet (don’t forget to sandpaper the tips and connect it to the battery!)
Step 5: BYE
Blah blah blah
