Question
Distinguish between a bar magnet and a solenoid.
✓
Answer
Solenoid:
- A solenoid is a rod like structure on which copper wire tightly wrapped
- Solenoid need electricity for creating magnetic field around it.
- It is a rectangular coil which attract the pics of small iron
- Bar magnet do not need electricity for creating magnetic Field around it.
