To determine which electromagnet will produce the strongest magnetic force, we can analyze the two key factors involved: current intensity and the number of turns in the wire. Generally, the magnetic force produced by an electromagnet is directly proportional to both the current intensity and the number of turns in the wire.

Let's evaluate each electromagnet:

  • Electromagnet W: Medium current intensity, 10 turns
  • Electromagnet X: Low current intensity, 10 turns
  • Electromagnet Y: Medium current intensity, 50 turns
  • Electromagnet Z: Low current intensity, 50 turns

Now, we can compare the electromagnets based on their product of current intensity and number of turns. Higher values indicate stronger magnetic force.

  • Electromagnet W: Medium (assumed to be higher than low, but exact value not provided, so let's denote it as "M") gives us \( M \times 10 \)
  • Electromagnet X: Low gives \( L \times 10 \)
  • Electromagnet Y: Medium gives \( M \times 50 \)
  • Electromagnet Z: Low gives \( L \times 50 \)

Since we do not know the exact values of "M" and "L" (the specific current intensities), we focus on the comparative values:

  • Electromagnet Y has the higher number of turns compared to W and X, and it has a medium current intensity paired with 50 turns, suggesting a stronger outcome.
  • Electromagnet W with medium intensity and 10 turns is weaker than Y.
  • Electromagnet Z, with a low current intensity but more turns (50), will still not match Y's combination of medium current and many turns.
  • Electromagnet X has the same low intensity as Z but fewer turns and will therefore be the weakest.

Thus, Electromagnet Y will produce the strongest magnetic force.

Answer: electromagnet Y
