Electromagnet: a fun, at home science experiment

[edmunds357]

i dont like because you dont tell how to build a very strong magnet :(

@edmunds357 Use a metal rod with a lot of spirals and a battery and you get a more powerful magnet. the stronger the power source for the electromagnetic field, the stronger the magnet.

@QuimDosChurros BTW, be careful because it can get REALLY hot as you are using a short circuit.

Mine worked out, but thats also getting hot after some time.

How to stop this heating? I wish to make it work continuously without getting heated.
