Question 4 • Physical Science

What can Lisa do to increase the strength of the electromagnet?

Answer
A
She can reduce the current in the wire.
B
She can use a nail with weaker magnetic properties.
C
She can change the direction of the nail.
D
She can increase the number of wire loops.

Explanation

An electromagnet becomes stronger when more wire loops are wrapped around its core, because each loop adds to the magnetic field. So Lisa can increase the number of wire loops. Reducing the current or using a nail with weaker magnetic properties would not increase its strength.
