Hi, what is your question?
what happens when you put a potentially magnetic material ( like iron) inside of loops of current carrying wire??
Wiki will explain better, but here's the definition: Electromagnetism is the study of the electromagnetic force which is a type of physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles. The electromagnetic force usually shows electromagnetic fields, such as electric fields, magnetic fields and light. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism
L:( i don't know the answer;(
lol, sorry, it should have been An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off. Electromagnets usually consist of a large number of closely spaced turns of wire that create the magnetic field. and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnet
that piece of iron (ferromagnetic material) will be magnetized by the magnetic field generated by your loops of electric current and will be attracted towards the same loops of current
