Explanation:
Tratándose de un electroimán (una bobina con núcleo de acero imantada por el paso de una corriente eléctrica), diríamos que "atraía un trozo (una pieza) de acero" cada vez que se la hacía atravesar por una corriente eléctrica. Aunque estrictamente hablando, no es necesario el núcleo de acero, su incorporación intensifica el campo magnético generado por el paso de la corriente (http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroimán ).
