Predict what would happen to the strength of the electromagnet in each situation.

Answers:
Using a battery with a higher voltage::stronger force of attraction
Wrapping the wire around the nail only three times::weaker force of attraction
Changing the direction of the current by reversing the battery connections::no change
Using a plastic stick in place of the iron nail::weaker force of attraction
Holding the nail vertically rather than horizontally::no change
