Question

Use the table of information about four electromagnets to answer the question. Electromagnet Current Intensity Number of Turns in the Wire W medium 10 X low 10 Y medium 50 Z low 50 Which electromagnet will produce the strongest magnetic force? (1 point) Responses electromagnet Z electromagnet Z electromagnet Y electromagnet Y electromagnet X electromagnet X electromagnet W

Answer 1

To determine which electromagnet will produce the strongest magnetic force, we need to consider both the current intensity and the number of turns in the wire for each electromagnet. A stronger magnetic field is produced by higher current and more turns of wire.

Let’s analyze the given electromagnets:

1. Electromagnet W: Medium current, 10 turns
2. Electromagnet X: Low current, 10 turns
3. Electromagnet Y: Medium current, 50 turns
4. Electromagnet Z: Low current, 50 turns

Now let's evaluate them based on the intensity of the current and the number of turns:

• Electromagnet W: Medium current (let's assume a value like 5) and 10 turns = 5 * 10 = 50
• Electromagnet X: Low current (let's assume a value like 1) and 10 turns = 1 * 10 = 10
• Electromagnet Y: Medium current (5) and 50 turns = 5 * 50 = 250
• Electromagnet Z: Low current (1) and 50 turns = 1 * 50 = 50

From this calculation:

• Electromagnet W: 50
• Electromagnet X: 10
• Electromagnet Y: 250 (strongest)
• Electromagnet Z: 50

Based on the analysis, Electromagnet Y will produce the strongest magnetic force.

The answer is: electomagnet Y.
