Question
Name any two factors on which the strength of magnetic field produced by a current-carrying solenoid depends. How does it depend on these factors?
Advertisements
Solution
The strength of magnetic field produced by a current-carrying solenoid depends on:
(i) The number of turns in the solenoid:
If the number of turns in the solenoid is large, they will produce greater magnetism.
(ii) The nature of core material used in making the solenoid:
If a soft iron rod is used as core in the solenoid, it produces strongest magnetism.

The graph (fig A) illustrates the correlation between the number of protons (x-axis) and the number of neutrons (y-axis) for elements A, B, C, D, and E in the periodic table. These elements are denoted by the letters rather than their conventional symbols. When the element C, depicted in the graph, undergoes radioactive decay, it releases radioactive rays. When these rays are directed into the plane of the paper in the presence of a magnetic field, as indicated in the fig B, they experience deflection, causing them to move upwards.
