The current being drawn by the device (refrigerator compressor maybe?), is passing through the coil. The guage if the wire depends on the amount of current the device draws and also the amount of magnetic field it must create to remove the start winding from the circuit.
The solenoid principle. A coil of wire is connected to some sort of electric current.
current carrying coil
electric current in the coil of wire.
Current coil carries the current.
YESA solenoid is a coil of wire, which turns into a magnet when a?current?flows through
solenoid!
To create a magnetic field using a coil of wire and an electric current, simply pass the electric current through the wire coil. The flow of electrons in the wire generates a magnetic field around the coil. The strength of the magnetic field can be increased by increasing the current or by adding more coils to the wire.
The device you are referring to is an electromagnet. When an electric current passes through the coil of wire, it creates a magnetic field in the iron core, which then acts like a magnet. This property is commonly used in various applications such as in electric motors and relays.
A magnet induces an electric current in a wire coil when there is a relative motion between the magnet and the coil, which generates a changing magnetic field. This changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force, leading to the flow of an electric current in the wire coil.
A cylindrical coil of current-carrying wire is a type of solenoid - a coil of wire wound in a helical shape around a cylinder. When an electric current flows through the wire, it generates a magnetic field along the axis of the cylinder. This type of coil is commonly used in electromagnets, transformers, and inductors.
pass a magnetic field through the coil of wire.
A magnet created when electric current flows through a coil of wire is called an electromagnet.
