SUMMARY
The strength of the magnetic field generated by a current-carrying coil is influenced by several key factors, including the amount of electric current flowing through the coil, the number of turns in the coil, the core material used, and the coil's geometry. Increasing the current enhances the magnetic field strength, while adding more turns amplifies the effect. Additionally, using ferromagnetic materials as a core can significantly increase the magnetic field strength due to their magnetic permeability. Understanding these factors is crucial for optimizing coil design in applications such as electromagnets and inductors.
