Electromagnet - Explained

From the creator

What is an electromagnet? What does electromagnetic mean? How do electromagnets work? Electromagnets use an electrical current in order to produce magnetic poles. The operate just like permanent magnets, however they require the presence of a flowing current. By passing a current through a wound coil of wire, north and south magnetic poles will form. -- Related Videos -- Magnets: http://youtu.be/7nhmJPMi4FU Electric Motors: http://youtu.be/ErV5lGVso1w Please feel free to rate, comment, and subscribe!
