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.
What is produced when a coil of wire is wrapped around an iron core?
electromagnet
Does the strength of an electromagnet depend on the number of volts passing through the wire or the number of coils of wire wrapped around the iron core?
The strength of an electromagnet depends on: -- The magnitude of the current through the wire. (This depends on the voltage between the ends of the wire.) -- The number of turns of wire in the coil wrapped around the iron core.
What was wrapped around an iron bar to create the first electromagnet?
Coils of wire
Coils of wire wrapped around a ferromagnetic core make up a motor's?
Coils of wire wrapped around a ferromagnetic core make up a motor's armature. It carries an electrical current and rotates within a magnetic field.
Is plastic wrapped around the electric wires is a good conductor?
Plastic wrapped around the wire is insulator. Not a conductor. That is why it is wrapped around the conductor wire.
Can a wire be wrapped around a screw clockwise or counter clockwise?
Well, it CAN be wrapped either way, but because standard screws tighten when turned clockwise:if the wire is wrapped around the screw clockwise tightening the screw will pull the wire tighter around the screwif the wire is wrapped around the screw counterclockwise tightening the screw will push the wire away from the screw making it loose and maybe even popping the wire out from under the screwSo, if you want the wire to stay secure on the screw only wrap it clockwise!
