What happen when you change the direction of current in an electromagnet?

If you change the direction of current in an electromagnet, (which by the way is just a coil of wire) then the direction of the magnetic field will also be reversed: That is to say, what was north is now south. If you want more info. look up "the left hand rule".

What happen to an electromagnet's field if the direction of the current ic reversed?
In that case, the magnetic field will also be reversed.
What will happen to the electromagnet when current flows in the wire around it?
A coil of wire in which current is flowing is an electromagnet. If to that arrangement you add an iron core, then the magnet will get stronger.
What will happen if you change polarity in parallel circuit?
The current in each branch of the circuit will turn and flow in the other direction.
What can happen through a change in speed or direction?
velocity can happen
What will happen if a wire is wrapped around a nail a lot of times?
If the nail is iron and you pass an electric current through the wire then you have an electromagnet.
What happen to an electromagnet's field if the direction of the current ic reversed?
In that case, the magnetic field will also be reversed.
What would happen to electronics magnets etc if the earths magnetic poles changed?
Nothing - The polarity of an electromagnet depends on the direction of current flow and you can effect the same change in orientation to the earth's field by moving the electromagnet rather than the earth's field.
What will happen to the electromagnet when current flows in the wire around it?
A coil of wire in which current is flowing is an electromagnet. If to that arrangement you add an iron core, then the magnet will get stronger.
What happen to the magnetic field of a wire when change the direction of the current in the wire?
Direction of the magnetic lines too would get changed
What will happen if you change polarity in parallel circuit?
The current in each branch of the circuit will turn and flow in the other direction.
What will happen when the current flows around the electromagnet in the bell?
the magnet is start picking things up
What happen to a electromagnet if you switch the current off?
When we turn of the current in an electromagnet then electromagnet looses its magnetic property,provided the material used inside the current carrying solenoid is soft iron core. If, the material is steel then after the current is turned the magnetism propety still prevails and hence steel becomes a permanent magnet.
What would happen if you pass the current along an electromagnet in the opposite direction?
they would repel against one another well i don't really know go ask Ur mamma or dad whichever is smarter lolz
What can happen through a change in speed or direction?
velocity can happen
What would happen if an ocean current changed it's direction?
Nothing just that it does not move to that direction
What will happen if a wire is wrapped around a nail a lot of times?
If the nail is iron and you pass an electric current through the wire then you have an electromagnet.
What will happen if you put a compass next to an electromagnet that is switched?
the compass's needle will point at the electromagnet
