Question

Two solenoids P and Q are taken. The coil in solenoid P is wound over a cylindrical wooden core and the coil in solenoid Q is wound over a soft iron core.
In which solenoid is the magnetic field stronger?

  1. Solenoid P
  2. Solenoid Q
  3. Both Solenoid P and Q magnetic field will be the same
  4. Can’t say

hintHint:

Soft iron core is ferromagnetic which possesses magnetic property and creates magnetic field that becomes stronger as the iron. 

Cylindrical wooden core acts as a non-conductor.

The correct answer is: Solenoid Q


    The magnetic field in the solenoid Q is more as it is wound with an iron core.
    • The solenoid creates a magnetic field that is stronger at the center.
    • When the solenoid Q is wound over a soft iron core its magnetic field becomes stronger as the iron is ferromagnetic and possesses magnetic property which magnetizes with the solenoid.
    • The magnetic field produced by the solenoid P that is wound with a wooden core is lesser than the iron combined solenoid.
