Electromagnets and Electromagnetic Induction _ GCSE Physics

12th - Higher Ed
When a current flows through a wire it causes a magnetic field to be produced around the wire. For a single piece of wire, the magnetic field is made up of concentric circles around the centre. If you coil the wire up however, the...
