Question

If you make an electromagnet using a battery circuit and a steel nail, how can you increase its magnetic strength?

Answer 1

Answer;

B.wrap more coils of wire around the nail

Explanation;

• Electromagnets are made by winding a wire through a magnetic material such as soft iron core making a coil, and then passing electric current through the coil thus making the soft iron core magnetic.
• The strength of the electromagnet depends on the number of coils and also the size of the electric current through the coil.
• Therefore, in this case wrapping more coils of wire around the nail increases the strength of the electromagnet.

Answer 2

The correct answer is B. wrap more coils of wire around the nail. This is how you can increase its magnetic strength. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
