Enhancing Magnetic Fields with Solenoids and Electromagnets

The hollow bar magnet is an electric form of a magnet filled with air, also known as a breezy bar magnet or solenoid.
Solenoids, like bar magnets, produce a magnetic field when current passes through them, similar to the magnetic field produced by a magnet.
To increase the strength of a solenoid, increase the turn density by wrapping more turns in less space, which enhances the magnetic field.
Adding a ferromagnetic substance inside a solenoid, such as iron, nickel, or cobalt, increases the magnetic field strength.
Electromagnets can be made using soft iron for temporary magnetism or hard iron doped with nickel or cobalt for permanent magnetism.
The magnetic field intensity inside a solenoid is denoted by B, with the field being maximum inside and decreasing towards the corners.
Fleming's Left Hand Rule explains the interaction between a wire's own magnetic field and an external magnetic field when current flows through the wire.
When a wire with its own magnetic field is placed in an external magnetic field, there is interaction between the two fields, resulting in attraction or repulsion forces.
The interaction between the wire's own magnetic field and the external magnetic field leads to the manifestation of forces like attraction and repulsion.
Understanding the interaction between magnetic fields is crucial in comprehending the behavior of electromagnets and solenoids.
