Increasing the number of loops of wire
putting a piece of iron inside the loops of wire apex :)
Increasing the current flowing through the wire
Increasing the number of loops of wire
- A relative decrease in electric current in the electromagnet, since Ampere's law states that electric current produces a magnetic field relative to the intensity of the current produced.
- Decreasing the number of windings around the coil, or spacing them more widely.
- Raising the temperature of the magnet, which increases the resistance.
We all know that all magnetism is due to circulating electric currents. In magnetic materials the magnetism is produced by electrons orbiting within the atoms; in most substances the magnetic effects of different electrons cancel each other out.
Also, the strength of a magnet depends on the wall thickness of a magnet. And, it's categories by it's maximum energy products, which is the measure of magnetic force of attraction. So, the answer as per question is to hammer it, as hammering a magnet will affects all the above properties like electrons won't orbit within the atoms anymore, wall thickness will decrease and accordingly the magnetic force of attraction will also decrease. Not just hammering , exposing the magnet to fire will give you the same result.
less voltage, thicker wire, not firmly wrapped around the core
Decreasing the voltage
Straightening the wire
a magnet can be reduced in strength or rendered useless by introducing a larger magnet into the same area.
Using fewer loops of wire per meter in the coil. Decreasing the current in the wire and removing the iron core will not work.
B = u n I / 2 r
So B can be increased by increasing the number of turns (n)
By increasing the current (I)
By reducing the radius of the coil (r)
-- Increase the current (amperes) flowing through the coil of wire that surrounds the electromagnet. -- Increase the number of 'turns' of wire in the coil.
One way to increase the strength of a copper electromagnet is by adding another coil. Another way is by wrapping the copper coil around a nail made of iron.Adding more loops to the wireWrapping the copper wire around an iron nailIncreasing the current
Answer you can increase the strength of an electromagnet by: 1) Increasing the current flow 2) Increasing the number of coils 3) Passing an 'iron core' through the coil of the electromagnet
Electromagnet
This is because an electromagnet gets its magnetic force from the electrons passing through the wire, the more coils there are the more electrons passing through so the more magnetic power. Obviously this only works to an extent since you would need more voltage and so on.
As current increases, the electromagnet strength will increase.
-- Increase the current (amperes) flowing through the coil of wire that surrounds the electromagnet. -- Increase the number of 'turns' of wire in the coil.
Yes
Yes
using a stronger ferromagnetic material for the core. :)
No, as in this case,the rod is the magnet,and the strength of a magnet does not depend on its size.
Add a battery
For a simple copper wire around iron nail electromagnet, increasing the number of rounds the copper wire makes around the nail will increase the electromagnet's strength. Also, increasing the voltage applied(adding a battery) will increase the magnetic field.
-- 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.
iron
Yes, if you increase the number of coils or loops in an electromagnet, it's power increases.
welll a scrap heat metal magnet works because it has an electromagnet inside it. The electromagenet has a soft iron core (so that when it can be turned on and off), a coil of wire with lots of turns (to increase the strength of the magnet), and the voltage is very high( also to increase strength.
