15.Restore the battery setting to 10 V. Now change the number of loops from 4 to 3. Explain what happens to the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field. Now change to 2 loops, then to 1 loop. What do you observe the relationship to be between the magnitude of the magnetic field and the number of loops for the same current

Answer:

we see it is a linear relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnetic flux is u solenoid is

B = μ₀ N/L I

where N is the number of loops, L the length and I the current

By applying this expression to our case we have that the current is the same in all cases and we can assume the constant length. Consequently we see that the magnitude of the magnetic field decreases with the number of loops

B = (μ₀ I / L) N

the amount between paracentesis constant, in the case of 4 loop the field is worth

B = cte 4

N B

4 4 cte

3 3 cte

2 2 cte

1 1 cte

as we see it is a linear relationship.

In addition, this effect for such a small number of turns the direction of the field that is parallel to the normal of the lines will oscillate,
