Want this question answered?
you have three turns each
length of the screw, and number of turns per inch
You just flip the numbers of the fraction.....such as 1/7 turns into 7/1...
Wrapping a number of coils of insulated wire around an iron nail, and a passing a current from a battery through it, turns the iron nail in to an electro-magnet. While the current flows, the nail will attract metal objects. It is a standard demonstaration in science classes in schools. The more turns the stronger the attraction.
For metric, use mm - For English, use Inches English Example: [ 1inch / (thickness of nut) ] x (number of turns for the bolt to get through the nut ) typical numbers are 18, 24, and 32. Metric: (thickness of nut in mm) / (number of turns for the bolt to get through the nut) typical numbers are 1, 1.25, 1.5, and 2.
As the number of turns in the coil increases, the strength of the electromagnet increases.
Any strength of power source can be used to make an electromagnet. A single AA battery, used well, can (at least briefly) power an electromagnet that can hold several pounds of metal in the air. An electromagnet's strength is determined by three factors: * the material in the core (air makes a weak magnet; iron a reasonably strong one) * the amount of current in the wire * the number of turns that the wire makes around the core The strength of an electromagnet is often referred to in "amp-turns": the number of turns times the amount of current it has. A simple battery approximates a voltage source: that AA battery pushes out about 1.5V of electricity. Divide that 1.5V by the resistance of the wire (longer wire higher resistance) and you get the current in the wire. At least, until your voltage source gives up and can't deliver that much current any more--then you need a new battery. :)

The more turns of wire in an electromagnet the stronger the magnetic field.
True.
An iron or steel with wire wound on it turns the drive shaft.
The strength of an electromagnet depends on the current through the coil andthe number of turns in the coil. The voltage across the coil doesn't matter at all.So IF both of your electromagnets have the same number of turns in their coils,then the one with 20A of current is stronger than the one with 5A of current.If they have different numbers of turns in their coils, then we need more informationbefore we can decide which one is stronger.
true
No, the electromagnet is not made weaker by making the core larger. It can be made weaker by decreasing its current and/or turns of coil.
Wrap the wire around the rivet as many times as you can, and connect the ends of the wire to a battery.Turning on the electricity turns on the electromagnet. More turns of wire means a stronger magnet.See also related Wikipedia link.
British scientist William Sturgeon invented the electromagnet in 1824.[7][8] His first electromagnet was a horseshoe-shaped piece of iron that was wrapped with about 18 turns of bare copper wire
-- Increase the current (amperes) flowing through the coil of wire that surrounds the electromagnet. -- Increase the number of 'turns' of wire in the coil.
