6 (The poles can be reversed by reversing the direction of the current)
Electromagnets 18/11/2018 The strength of an electromagnet can be increased by doing three things: Increasing the voltage Increasing the number of coils Inserting an iron core (The poles can be reversed by reversing the direction of the current)
