Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To increase the strength of an electromagnet, you can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Increase the Current - The first method to increase the strength of an electromagnet is to increase the amount of electric current flowing through the coil. When more current flows through the wire, it generates a stronger magnetic field. ### Step 2: Increase the Number of Turns in the Coil - The second method is to increase the number of turns of the wire in the coil. The more turns of wire you have, the stronger the magnetic field produced by the electromagnet. Each loop of wire contributes to the overall magnetic field strength. ...
