Answer:

To minimize the practical errors and improve the accuracy.

Explanation:

  • Scientists take several measurements and use the average of all the measured values to minimize the practical errors due to unavoidable circumstances and be close to the true value.
  • True value is the actual value of a measured parameter without any error, it is the value which is proposed in the design of a certain object.
  • Variations may occur in the measurement due to wear and tear, dust and air pressure. It is almost impossible to create ideal surrounding for the measurement procedure.

Answer:

Explanation:

If one assume that each turn is like a strand of electromagnet, which can then be added up. Therefore, increase in the number of turns will yield to increase in the magnetic strength. Also if the current increases, then there will be increase in the magnetic field strength.

From Ohm's law

V = IR

I = V/R

That is a direct increase in voltage will lead to increase in current.

Increase the voltage of the battery and increases the number of turns of the coil. Will suit the situation
