How does a solenoid act as a magnet?

When current is passed through a solenoid coil, magnetic field produced due to each turn of solenoid coil is in the same direction. As a result the resultant magnetic field is very strong and uniform. The field lines inside the solenoid are in the form of parallel straight lines along the axis of solenoid. Thus, the solenoid behaves like a bar magnet.


Is a solenoid a coil of wire that has a current?

YESA solenoid is a coil of wire, which turns into a magnet when a?current?flows through

What does cylinoid do?

The word, 'Solenoid' defines a shape, which turns out to be cylinder-shaped. Solenoid is an adjective . . . that means that it modifies a noun. The noun in this case is coil: As in 'solenoid coil' which is cylinder-shaped. In a car, the solenoid coil, or just 'Solenoid' pulls in the electric contactor on a car's starter to turn the starter. After the car starts, the solenoid releases the contactor to where it will be ready for the next engine startup.


What is difference between solenoid and coil?

Solenoid has a longer length compared to its diameter. The Distance between two loops in a solenoid is longer. while Coil has the bigger diameter. The distance between two loops in a coil is shorter compared to its diameter.


Which factors affect the magnetic strength of a solenoid which is carrying an electric current?

Factors affecting the magnetic field strength of a solenoid are: - length of the solenoid - diameter of the solenoid - current through the coil around the solenoid - number of turns of the coil of current around the solenoid, usually turns of wire - material in the core


Does the solenoid have to be touching the coil on a 125 sx ktm?

no. because there is no solenoid of any kind on a 125sx.


A coil of wire with an electric current in it?

A solenoid. An electromagnet is wire wrapped around a core of iron (usually). The wrapped wire itself is called the solenoid.


In a solenoid valve system if the voltage on the coil is 118 VAC and a continuity test of the solenoid and coil measures 80 ohms yet the solenoid will not allow water flow the most likely cause of?

There could be more than one reasons. Applied voltage may not be 118 volts. Solenoid valve may have been stuck mechanically. Solenoid coil could be faulty, partially short.

What is a cylinoid?

"Cylinoid" is correctly spelled as "solenoid." A solenoid is a helix coil that is tightly wrapped. These are generally found in cars.
