Electricity and magnetism are very closely linked, and this electromagnetic train experiment demonstrates that principle. Placing the battery inside the coil of wire creates an electrical circuit. Electricity goes from the positive end of the battery through your magnets into the copper wire and spirals back to the negative end of the battery. The electricity going through the copper wire creates a magnetic field, which pushes against the magnets and pushes your train forward.
