If you change the number of loops in a solenoid, what happens to the strength of the magnetic field of an electromagnet?

The strength of the magnetic field is proportional to the number of turns in the solenoid; this means that the strength of the field will increase or decrease as you increase or decrease the number of turns in the coil, respectively - they are directly related.

Hope this helps!
