... A solenoid with soft iron core which can be magnetized by passing a current through the coil is called an electromagnet. The soft iron core acts as temporary magnet and does not retain its magnetism after the current is switched off. Thus this is a type of magnet which can be switched on and off as ...

... If the train goes faster, there will be more 1's per second - i.e. the frequency of the digital signal will be greater. If we want to measure the speed of the train we need to count the number of 1's (pulses) in one second (or some other fixed time period). The system illustrated below will do this ...

History of electromagnetic theory

For a chronological guide to this subject, see Timeline of electromagnetic theory.The history of electromagnetic theory begins with ancient measures to deal with atmospheric electricity, in particular lightning. People then had little understanding of electricity, and were unable to scientifically explain the phenomena. In the 19th century there was a unification of the history of electric theory with the history of magnetic theory. It became clear that electricity should be treated jointly with magnetism, because wherever electricity is in motion, magnetism is also present. Magnetism was not fully explained until the idea of magnetic induction was developed. Electricity was not fully explained until the idea of electric charge was developed.
