Best Answer

A current circulating in a hollow copper coil (solenoid) produces a magnetic field equal to the permeability times the turns density times the current.

B = μ x n x I

* B is the magnetic field measured in Tesla

* μ is the relative permeability of the solenoid's core which is air in this example and have a value approximated to 1.25663706E-6

* n is the turns density which equals the number of turns divided by the solenoid length

n = N/L where L is measured in meters.

* I is the current flowing within the solenoid and measured in Amperes

What is a magnet made with a battery?

An electromagnet. Anytime electrical current flows through a conductor, a magnetic field is produced.


Does ac current produce magnetic field?

Yes; any current produces a magnetic field, an AC current will produce an alternating magnetic field. If the current (and therefore the magnetic field) changes quickly, you may not be able to detect it with a compass needle, for example.


What happens to the magnetic field if the current in the wire increases?

If the current in the wire increases, the magnetic field also increases.

How can electric currents and magnets exert force on each other?

Electric currents and magnetic fields are by nature and by definition related to each other. In general, a magnetic field is created by the rotation of charge. If you imagine an electron following a circular path, a magnetic field would be created in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the circle.On the other hand, electric current is defined as the flow of charge. So, an electron flowing along a wire results in current flow. This also means that the electron following a circular path (as above) creates an electric current along that same path.If a circular flow of current results in a magnetic field perpendicular to the circle, what happens for current flow along a straight wire? Basically, we see a magnetic field which bends around the wire. Imagine exactly the reverse as before, with the magnetic field circling around the direction of current flow.This basic relationship between electric current and magnetic fields results in some interesting interactions:1. Many electromagnets work by the following principle: A coil of wire is made so that when voltage is applied the current will follow a circular path. As discussed above this circular movement of charge results in a magnetic field. In this case, you can imagine the direction of the magnetic field as the line through the center of the wire coil.2. The Hall Effect: When current is applied across a conductive slab and a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to current flow, a voltage is generated in the third perpendicular direction. This occurs due to the interaction of the magnetic field generated by the flow of current and the applied magnetic field.
