AI Thread Summary
Increasing the number of turns in a solenoid directly enhances the electromagnetic force generated by the electric current flowing through it. The formula for a solenoid indicates that the magnetic field strength is proportional to the number of turns, reinforcing the relationship between coil turns and electromagnetic force. Each additional turn of wire contributes to the overall magnetic field, effectively amplifying the solenoid's strength. This concept aligns with domain theory, which explains how magnetic domains align to produce a stronger magnetic effect with more turns. Therefore, more coils result in a more powerful electromagnet.

An electric current passing through a coil of wire generated an electromagnetic effect.What effect does the number of turns of wire in a coil have on the size of the electromagnetic force?

What hypothesis can u form and how do you use the domain theory to support this??
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Can you show us how far you've gotten on this one?

There are two ways to do this. First, look at the formula for a solenoid and look at the part number of turns plays. Secondly, reason it out. What does each wire do? What happens when you add more?
 
more coils. solenoid is a electromagnet.
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
