Answer

Correct option: A.
Electric bell

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.
The wire turns are often wound around a magnetic core made of generally iron. 
 Electromagnets are widely used as components of electrical devices such as Electric Bell ,motors, generators, loudspeakers, hard disks, $\text{MRI}$ machines, scientific instruments, etc.
