Question

Science Question on Magnetic Effects of Current and Magnetism

Strength of magnetic field produced by a current carrying solenoid DOES NOT depend upon:

A

number of turns in the solenoid

B

direction of the current flowing through it

C

radius of solenoid

D

material of core of the solenoid

Answer

direction of the current flowing through it

Explanation

Solution

The strength of the magnetic field produced by a solenoid depends on:
• The number of turns in the solenoid.
• The material of the core.
• The current flowing through the solenoid.
However, the direction of the current does not affect the field’s strength but only its direction.
