Yeah buddy - until something smokes.

It does, and so does increasing the amp supply but you have to be careful not to melt the wire. Preferably you should increase both. -Good Luck Note; You automatically increase the amps being used by increasing the voltage applied.

If you increase the voltage, does it increase the power of the electromagnet? Answer Oh, yes, the magnetic field gets stronger. An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by the flow of an electric current. Scroll down to related links and look for "Electromagnet".

Electromagnet is a device which works on the Fleming's left hand rule. The rule says that if a magnet, motion of current and direction of magnetic field are perpendicular to each other then the flowing causes motion in the coil.( due to the Lorentz's force). The rule states that the speed of the coil: * is directly proportional to the flow of current, i.e. more is the flow of current, more is the speed of the coil; * is directly proportional to the strength of magnet, i.e. more is the strength of the magnet, more is the speed of the coil; and, * is directly proportional to the number of turns of wire on the coil, i.e. more is the turn, more is the speed of the coil. So your answer is, if you increase the current in an electromagnet, the speed of the coil will increase!!!!!!!!

If you want the amount of energy to increase from a magnet (Make the magnet stronger), you can try to: Increase the current flowing into your electromagnet, use an iron core, or wrap more coils around your magnet.

What happens if you increase the current in an electomagnet?

As current increases, the electromagnet strength will increase.

Two ways to increase the strength of an electromagnet?

-- Increase the current (amperes) flowing through the coil of wire that surrounds the electromagnet. -- Increase the number of 'turns' of wire in the coil.


In an electromagnet the magnetic forces increase as increases?

It increases as the current increases.


Inductor works in direct current?

Yes, an inductor works with direct current. It is called an electromagnet. Of course, a practical electromagnet has series resistance, otherwise the current in the inductor would increase to the limit of the current/voltage source.


How can a electromagnet pick up more metal things?

More than what? - An electromagnet can pick up metal due to its magnetism - assuming it is turned on. If you increase the current, the electromagnet becomes more powerful - but you must be careful not to pass too much current, otherwise the wires might burn through.


Why does the strength of the electromagnet increase from the coils?

The electromagnet is made stronger in proportion to the current given. Refer to the link provided for more information.AnswerWhen current passes through the coil of wire surrounding the core of an electromagnet, it acts to align the magnetic domains within that core. Once all the domains have been aligned, the electromagnet has reached 'saturation' and is as strong as it can get. So the strength of an electromagnet is NOT proportional to its magnetising current.


What happens when you decrease the current in an electromagnet?

When you decrease the current in an electromagnet, the magnetic field decreases.


The what of an electromagnet is determined by the direction of current flow?

The electromagnet (polarity) is determined by the direction of current.


How do you make a super power full electromagnet?

-- Use greater length of wire. -- Wind it into more turns around the coil. -- Decrease the diameter of the coil. -- Increase the electrical current through the coil. Each of these actions will increase the strength of the electromagnet.


What is a magnet made by electric current?

An electromagnet.


What happens to the electromagnet when the circuit is closed?

An electromagnet if formed by pushing current through a coil. If the circuit is truly open, current will cease to flow, thus no electromagnet.
