Lesson 7 - Electromagnets

Introduction

By using a few simple parts, a battery, wire, and a nail, you can create an electromagnet. Electromagnets use electricity wrapped in coils around an iron core (like a nail) to create a magnetic field. These are very useful because they can be turned on or off. Let’s learn more about electromagnets.
