Question 9 • TX-Physics CR

Which changes will cause an increase in the magnetic field of a solenoid? Check all that apply.using more wire loopsusing fewer wire loopsusing a larger currentusing a smaller currentincreasing the spacing between loopsdecreasing the spacing between loops

Answer
A
using more wire loops
B
using fewer wire loops
C
using a larger current
D
using a smaller current
E
increasing the spacing between loops
F
decreasing the spacing between loops

Explanation

The magnetic field inside a solenoid increases when the current or the number of turns per unit length increases. Using more wire loops increases the turns, and using a larger current strengthens the field. Decreasing the spacing between loops packs more turns into the same length, also increasing the field.
