To determine the strength of the magnetic force of the electromagnets, we can consider two factors: the current intensity and the number of turns. A higher current intensity and a greater number of turns generally result in a stronger magnetic force.

Based on the table:

  • Electromagnet P: Medium current intensity, 20 turns
  • Electromagnet Q: Low current intensity, 20 turns
  • Electromagnet R: Low current intensity, 15 turns

Since electromagnet P has a medium current intensity, it is likely stronger than both Q and R, which have low current intensity. Among Q and R, both have low current intensity, but Q has more turns (20) compared to R (15), which would make Q stronger than R.

So, the order from strongest to weakest magnetic force is:

  1. P (medium, 20 turns)
  2. Q (low, 20 turns)
  3. R (low, 15 turns)

Therefore, the correct list is P, Q, R.
