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 ?
How to Calculate N of a Solenoid: Understanding Turns per Meter
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion clarifies that N represents the number of turns per meter specifically referring to the coil height, not the length of the wire. Participants confirmed that when calculating N, one should consider the vertical dimension of the solenoid, which directly impacts its magnetic field strength. Understanding this distinction is crucial for accurate solenoid calculations.
