Michael Faraday discovered the relationship between electricity and magnetism. Using this discovery, he invented the electromagnet which uses an electric current to create a magnetic field. Using our materials from SRP, we made electromagnets today and conducted an inquiry experiment in which we answered the question "How can we make an electromagnet stronger?" We learned that an electromagnet with no power source doesn't work. Also, an electromagnet with 50 coils of wire is stronger than an electromagnet with only 30 coils of wire.
