area is equal to the magnetic flux, therefore it is equal.

What is the difference between electromagnet and solenoid?
A solenoid is a coiled wire with an electric current running through it, causing a magnetic field. An electromagnet is almost the same thing except it is much stronger than a solenoid (usually) and, unlike a solenoid, has a soft, iron core.
How can you strengthen a solenoid's magnetic field?
Think of the four C's- Add more Coils- Add an iron Core- Add a stronger Current- Make the coils Closer
Why a transformer only work with alternating currents?
The iron core of a transformer holds a magnetic field when energized by the primary windings that conduct current. It is the building up and collapse of the magnetic field that induces current in the secondary windings. Direct current has no build up or decay of magnetic field (except when turned on and shut off) so no current is induced in the secondary windings.
How do you produce a uniform magnetic field?
To make a long story short I wanna mention the name of several methods to make uniform dc magnetic fields: Using the space inside a solenoid Using the Helmholtz coil Using the Maxwell coil as all of these configurations take benefits of the phenomena in which current produces a magnetic field, the amplitude of the magnetic field would be easily controlled by control upon the current passes the loops of windings.
How is the magnetic field of an eletromagnet controlled?
The intensity of the magnetic field (measured in Teslas) produced by an electromagnet is directly proportional to the current (measured in Amperes) passing through it's coil windings. Therefore, as long as other variables remain constant, one can vary the intensity of the magnetic field by varying the current. Specifically, the intensity of the magnetic field will vary by the same factor as the current, so if the current is halved, the intensity of the magnetic field will also be halved; and if the current is tripled, the intensity of the magnetic field will also be tripled.
Determine the effect of variable area to the magnetic flux within the solenoid at constant number of windings and current?
With constant number of windings and current, the magnetic field density of a solenoid remains constant. However, magnetic flux is determined by the flow of magnetic field force through a given area. Therefore, the area is linearly and directly proportional to the magnetic flux.
What is the difference between electromagnet and solenoid?
A solenoid is a coiled wire with an electric current running through it, causing a magnetic field. An electromagnet is almost the same thing except it is much stronger than a solenoid (usually) and, unlike a solenoid, has a soft, iron core.
Why a starter motor solenoid has two windings?
to move the plunger in and out
In an electromagnet the magnetic force increase as increase?
Adding more coils will make the magnetic field stronger. Magnetic field increases.
What makes a electromagnet stronger than a solenoid?
The strength of an electromagnet is determined by the number of windings, the current flowing through the windings, and the permeability of the core.
What is the difference between core type and shell type transformers?
The difference is between how the windings relate to magnetic material around which they are wound. If this magnetic material surrounds the windings then the device is said to be a shell type transformer. If the windings cover the exterior of the magnetic material then the transformer is said to be of the core type. Please see the link.
Which starter solenoid windings has the greatest number of turns?
They usually have equal numbers of turns

How does Lenz's Law explain power loss in transformers?
It doesn't, really. The power loss in transformers is broken down into copper loss and iron loss. The copper loss comes from the resistance of the windings in the transformer and depends on the load current, while the iron loss in the magnetic core depends on the magnetic flux density and is constant if the supply voltage is constant.
Why a transformer only work with alternating currents?
The iron core of a transformer holds a magnetic field when energized by the primary windings that conduct current. It is the building up and collapse of the magnetic field that induces current in the secondary windings. Direct current has no build up or decay of magnetic field (except when turned on and shut off) so no current is induced in the secondary windings.
What is the purpose of a hold in windings in a starter?
There are pull in windings and hold in windings in a solenoid on a starter. The pull in pulls the starter gear into the ring gear on the engine then the hold in takes over and allows more power for the starter to turn the engine.
How electrical genrator work?
The stator and the armature are both wound. An excitation current is applied to the field(stator) windings from a DC source like a battery in order to produce a magnetic field. The armature is connected to a turbine or diesel engine via a shaft. As the armature turns, it's windings cut the magnetic flux of the field windings inducing an emf in the armature windings.
