Do you maybe mean an 'iron core?' If so, an iron core
strenghthens the magnetic field significantly. *If the coils are
wound closer together the fluxlines are more dense and increase the
strength of the field slightly (an iron core strengthens the field
by allowing the magnetic field to propagate inside it better than
air).

What is coil linearity?
A variable linearity coil has a coil which is wound around a
magnetic core, a permanent magnet for charging a bias magnetic
field to the magnetic core, and a magnetic field adjusting coil for
adjusting the bias magnetic field. The coil and the magnetic field
adjusting coil are respectively disposed horizontally such that an
axial line of each of the coils lies perpendicular to lead
terminals to which terminal ends of each of the coils are
connected. The coil, the magnetic field adjusting coil, and the
permanent magnet may be contained in a casing and the terminal ends
of each of the coil and the magnetic field adjusting coil are
connected to lead terminals which are embedded into the casing
Asked in Electrical Engineering
How current can be induced in a coil?
In 3 ways: By moving the coil in a magnetic field, by moving a
magnetic field relative to the coil, or by supplying alternating
current in a one coil and placing a second coil in the first's
magnetic field. The first is the principle of the dynamo and the
third the principle of the transformer.

What happens when a coil wire is moved across the lines of a magnetic field?

magnetic flux linked with the coil gets changed then an emf i.e.
electromotive force is induced in beween the ends of the coil

How does a magnet and voice coil work in a loudspeaker?
The coil has electricity applied to it by the amplifier. This
makes it an electromagnet. It reacts with the static magnetic field
of the magnet and moves the attached cone as the current
varies.
The magnet provides the constant magnetic field in which the
varying magnetic field of the coil add to or subtracts from. The
coil is connected to the speaker which varies according to the
total magnetic field.

How can a change in voltage in a coil of wire be transferred to a neighboring coil of wire without physical contact?
When electric current flows through a coil of wire it generates
a magnetic field. Variable current generates variable magnetic
field. When a second coil is placed in a variable magnetic field of
the first one an electric current is generated in it. Magnetic
nature of the connection between two coils can be proved by the
fact that it takes place only when the second coil is aligned with
the magnetic field of the first one. Magnetic field of a coil can
be traced with a compass.

What is electro magnet induction?
When current travels through a conductor a magnetic field is
generated around the conductor. If the current is AC the magnetic
field will expand and collapse. If you wind the conductor into a
coil the magnetic field will be stronger. Place a second coil close
to the first, so that the magnetic field will expand and collapse
across the second coil; a voltage 180 degrees out of phase with the
source voltage will be induced into the second coil.
If the current is DC the magnetic field will be constant and the
second coil will have to be spun through the magnetic field to
induce the voltage.
Asked in Physics, Energy
Why there is an induce current in a coil when a coil is compressed in a magnetic field?
compressing a coil in a magnetic field means that there is a
relative movement of the the said coil existing in a magnetic
field, hence current will be induced. induction law.
Another Answer
'Current' is not induced into a coil. It's voltage
that's induced; if the coil forms a closed loop, then current will
flow; if there is no closed loop, then no current will flow.
The induced voltage results from either a change in
current through the coil, or from the relative movement
between the coil and an external magnetic field.

What is the principle of a generator?
The scientific principle on which generators operate was
discovered almost simultaneously in about 1831 by the English
chemist and physicist, Michael Faraday, and the American physicist,
Joseph Henry. Imagine that a coil of wire is placed within a
magnetic field, with the ends of the coil attached to some
electrical device, such as a galvanometer. If the coil is rotated
within the magnetic field, the galvanometer shows that a current
has been induced within the coil. The magnitude of the induced
current depends on three factors: the strength of the magnetic
field, the length of the coil, and the speed with which the coil
moves within the field.
In fact, it makes no difference as to whether the coil rotates
within the magnetic field or the magnetic field is caused to rotate
around the coil. The important factor is that the wire and the
magnetic field are in motion in relation to each
other. In general, most DC generators have a stationary magnetic
field and a rotating coil, while most AC generators have a
stationary coil and a rotating magnetic field.

Asked in Electrical Engineering, Electrostatics, Magnetism
A loop of wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field.In which orientation of the loop is the magnetic flux linked with it maximum?
1. The orientation giving the maximum magnetic flux would be 90
degrees or perpendicular to the magnetic field because that gives
the maximum amount of magnetic field lines able to pass through the
area of the coil. The greater density of field lines gives a
greater magnetic field. The orientation that would give a magnetic
flux of zero is the plane of the coil to be parallel to the
magnetic field, making no lines pass through the coil and thus no
flux.

If the coil encloses an iron rod, then the magnetic field
strength inside a current-carrying coil will be increased. This
occurs because the air path in the coil is made shorter by putting
