Answer 3

if you wrap an iron bar with coils of wire, then connect the ends of the wire to a battery or another source of electricity, you get an electromagnet. Is the electromagnet just the iron bar or also the coil?

Answer 7

If you have an object that creates a magnetic field when you run a current through it, that's an electromagnet. You could have an iron-core solenoid, which is what you've described, or you could have one without the iron, or you could have a different wire arrangement altogether. The main point is that the magnetic field is turned on or off by the application of an electrical current.
