A student connects a battery to a wire and wraps the wire around an iron nail to produce an electromagnet. Which action should the student take to increase the number of paper clips the electromagnet can pick up?

He should replace the iron nail with a plastic spoon.

He should add another battery.

He should decrease the current through the wire

He should reduce the number of turns

He should add another battery.

Explanation:

An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. Electromagnets usually consist of wire wound into a core of magnetic material usually an iron core. When an electric current-producing battery is connected to the wire, an electric current will begin to flow and the iron core will become magnetized. When the battery is disconnected, the iron core will lose its magnetism.

Electromagnets works based on the electromagnetic field which is a field force due to the interaction of the electric and magnetic fields. the force on the wire is proportional to the size of the current, the length and thickness of the iron core, as well as the number of turns of wire around the iron core.

Therefore, from the number of possible action given that the student can take in order to increase the magnetism of his electromagnet, adding another battery, thereby increasing the current will be the best way to increase the number of paper clips tat his electromagnet can pick up.

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
