Solution
Strength of an electromagnet depends on the following factors:
- Number of turns in the coil: By increasing the number of turns in the coil, the strength of the electromagnet can be increased.
- Current flowing through the coil: By increasing the flow of current in the coil, the strength of the electromagnet can be increased.
- Length of air gaps between poles: By reducing the length of air gaps between the poles, the strength of the electromagnet can be increased.
