प्रश्न
Differentiate between a circular coil and a solenoid.
Advertisements
उत्तर
A circular coil is a single loop of wire creating a magnetic field perpendicular to its plane, while a solenoid consists of multiple coils wound closely in a cylindrical shape, producing a uniform magnetic field inside.

Ansari Sir was demonstrating an experiment in his class with the setup as shown in the figure below.

A magnet is attached to a spring. The magnet can go in and out of the stationary coil. He lifted the Magnet and released it to make it oscillate through the coil.
