उत्तर
An electromagnet is made by winding an insulated copper wire around a soft iron core either in the shape of a solenoid or U-shape.
The strength of magnetic field of an electromagnet depends on:
- The number of turns of wire wound around the coil, and
- The amount of current flowing through the wire.
