Hi......

In this way, the electromagnet can be switched on and off by turning the electricity on and off. Yes,The soft iron inside the coil makes the magnetic field stronger because it becomes a magnet itself when the current is flowing. Soft iron is used because it loses its magnetism as soon as the current stops flowing.
