Electromagnets are used in some robots.The electromagnest is a type of magnet around which a magnetic field id produced by a flow of electric current.
Induction with experiment:-
Robots use electro magnets for picking up metal parts . When the power supply is 'on' the robot arm lifts the object across the yard and drops it when the power supply is off.
Thank you. If my answer is helpful then give it a thank

Definition:

Electromagnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force across a conductor when it is exposed to a varying magnetic field.

Experiment:

Two different coils of copper wire having large number of turns (say 50 and 100 turns respectively) are taken. They are now inserted over a non-conducting cylindrical roll, as shown in figure below.

The coil-1, having larger number of turns, is connected in series with a battery and a plug key. Also, the other coil-2 is connected with a galvanometer as shown.

The key is initiated and the galvanometer is observed. We will observe that the needle of the galvanometer instantly jumps to one side and then quickly returns to zero, indicating a momentary current in coil-2.

The coil-1 is now disconnected from the battery. Now we will observe that the needle momentarily moves, but to the opposite side. It means that now the current flows in the opposite direction in coil-2.

Observations:

From these observations, we conclude that a potential difference is induced in the coil-2 whenever the electric current through the coil1 is changing (starting or stopping). As the current in the first coil changes, the magnetic field associated with it also changes. Thus the magnetic field lines around the secondary coil also change. Hence the change in magnetic field lines associated with the secondary coil is the cause of induced electric current in it. This process, by which a changing magnetic field in a conductor induces a current in another conductor, is called electromagnetic induction.

In practice we can induce current in a coil either by moving it in a magnetic field or by changing the magnetic field around it. It is convenient in most situations to move the coil in a magnetic field.
