 A simple electromagnet consists of an

insulated wire coil wrapped around an iron


core.
 A core of ferromagnetic material, like iron,
serves to increase the magnetic field
created.
 The strength of the generated magnetic
field is proportional to the amount of current
that passes through the windings.
