(See Figure \(\PageIndex<5>\).) Whenever strong magnetic effects are needed, such as lifting scrap metal, or in particle accelerators, electromagnets are enhanced by ferromagnetic materials. Limits to how strong the magnets can be made are imposed by coil resistance (it will overheat and melt at sufficiently high current), and so superconducting magnets may be employed. These are still limited, because superconducting properties are destroyed by too great a magnetic field.
Figure \(\PageIndex<5>\): An electromagnet with a ferromagnetic core can produce very strong magnetic effects. Continue Reading Merging a good ferromagnet that have an electromagnet can make like strong magnetic outcomes
