What is an electromagnet?
Type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. Magnetic field disappears when current turned off
1 of 7
What is a Solenoid?
Formed when wire looped into a cylindrical coil, shaping wire into solenoid increases strength of magnetic field, creating strong uniform field inside solenoid
2 of 7
What are Permanent Magnets?
Produce an magnetic field
