Question

Calculate the slope of the 25-coil line and the 50-coil line to determine the average number of paper clips that a 1 V battery would pick up.

Answer 1

For 25-turn electromagnet, Number of clips = 4.1

For 50-turn electromagnet number of clips = 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the slope of the 25-coil line and the 50-coil line to determine the average number of paper clips that a 1 V battery would pick up.

Hence;

Using the equations gotten from the graph in the previous question and 1.0 V as the value for x, we get

For 25-turn electromagnet y = 3.663x * 0.5

(rounded to one decimal place) Number of clips = 4.1

For 50-turn electromagnet y = 7.133x 2.5

(rounded to one decimal place) Number of clips = 9.6
