Question
If the strength of the current flowing through a wire is increased, the strength of the magnetic field produced by it ______.
Options
increases
increases
remains the same
first increases then decreases
Solution
If the strength of the current flowing through a wire is increased, the strength of the magnetic field produced by it increases.
Explanation:
The amount of current passing through the conductor directly correlates with the magnetic field generated.
