How does the number of turns affect the strength of the electromagnet?
i think it's not on the size but rather on the voltage capacity of the battery.. usually bigger batteries have higher voltages that's why we may relate it to their size, but there are some batteries despite being small in size have higher voltages. if we are comparing two batteries of different sizes but with the same voltages, maybe the question is which one will last and would sustain your magnet longer.. but in terms of power, they are the same
Would increasing the length of a rod in an electromagnet increase it's magnetism?
No, as in this case,the rod is the magnet,and the strength of a magnet does not depend on its size.
If you bring a bar magnet close to the first iron nail can the first iron nail attract and lift a second nail?
What happens if vary/change the distance between the magnet and the nail/s?
Does the thickness or length of the nail affect the electromagnet strength?
The tighter the coil, the higher the EM field; however, the more surface area of the coil the more EM you will be able to generate. An easy way to under stand this is with the transformer. This device takes one type of energy and converts it to another by use of two coils of different size. A smaller coil with the power souce will transfer power to a larger coil and convert the power to a higher voltage, but at a lower amperage and vice versa. Try looking for books at your local library that deal with electromagnetic coils.
What is the biggest nail?
the size of your body
How do the size of the current in the coil affect the strength of a electromagnet?
It's directly proportional.
A Study was done with an electromagnet system made from a battery and wire wrapped around a nail. Different sizes of nails were used the number of paper clips that the electromagnet could pick up?
i am pretty sure the size of nail doesn't matter.
Does size affect gravity's strength?
Size does not but mass does.

Can the size of wire affect an electromagnet's temperature output?
An electromagnet isn't designed to output any temperature. If it does that, then you can be sure that the size of wire from which it's wound is too small to safely carry the current it is carrying.
Does the size of the core affect the strength of a electromagnet?
That's because the strenght of the electromagnet is related to the number of coils then, the more coils gets more strenght because as you add more coils to the electromagnet you have more and more magnetic field. -I hope this answer helps you if you have a question regarding any questions on any subject please fell free to ask. Thank You
Does the size of an egg affect the strength?
NO.it doesnt.
Does magnet size affect the strength of a magnet?
Yes it does!
Would increasing the length of a rod in an electromagnet increase it's magnetism?
No, as in this case,the rod is the magnet,and the strength of a magnet does not depend on its size.
Does the temorature of the magnet affect the strength of the magnet?
No the temperature doesn't the size does.
How can the magnetic field strength of an electromagnet be reduced?
Either increasing the size of the current (in amps) or the number of turns of wire wrapped around the core will make a stronger magnet. A larger current will make a stronger magnet (up until too much makes the wire melt!). Increasing the voltage forces more current through the electromagnet.
