A.\u00a0What would be the effect of increasing the number of coils of wire in an electromagnet?<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nInference:<\/strong> The number of turns of a solenoid affects the strength of the magnetic field.
\nHypothesis:<\/strong> The larger the number of turns, the stronger the magnetic field.
\nVariables:<\/strong>
\n(a) Manipulated variable: Number of turns, N
\n(b) Responding variable: Strength of the magnetic field
\n(c) Fixed variables: The current in the solenoid, the type of core used, distance between the end of the soft iron rod and the pins in the Petri dish
\nOperational Definition:<\/strong> The strength of the magnetic field produced by the solenoid is operationally defined as the number of pins that can be attracted to one end of the core.
\nMaterials:<\/strong> A box of pins, soft iron rod, insulated copper wire, connecting wires
\nApparatus:<\/strong> D.C. power supply, ammeter, rheostat, Petri dish, retort stand with clamp
