i'm confused with N , it says that is the number of turns per meter , but is the meter the length of the wire or the coil height ?

A solenoid is an electrical component that consists of a coil of wire and typically a metallic core. When an electric current flows through the coil, it creates a magnetic field, which can be used to control the movement of a plunger or other mechanical device.
N stands for the number of turns in the solenoid's coil. It is a measure of how many times the wire is wound around the core of the solenoid.
The greater the number of turns (N) in the coil, the stronger the magnetic field produced by the solenoid. This is because each turn of wire adds to the overall magnetic field, resulting in a more powerful solenoid.
No, there is no standard value for N in solenoids. The number of turns (N) can vary depending on the specific application and the desired strength of the solenoid. It is typically determined by the design and engineering of the solenoid.
Yes, the value of N can be changed in a solenoid by adjusting the number of turns in the coil. This can be done by either adding or removing coils of wire from the solenoid, depending on the desired result.
