SUMMARY
The relationship between voltage and the strength of an electromagnet is directly proportional, meaning that increasing the voltage applied to the coil enhances the magnetic field strength. This is due to the increased current flowing through the wire, which is governed by Ohm's Law. The discussion emphasizes that while voltage is a critical factor, the number of wire turns and the core material also significantly influence the electromagnet's strength.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of Ohm's Law
