- Magnetic fields show the strength, shape and direction of the force.
- Magnetic fields show the strength, shape and direction of the force.
- The magnetic field around a solenoid has the same shape as the field round a bar magnet
- The magnetic field inside the solenoid can be used to magnetise magnetically soft metals
- The strength of the magnetic field can be increased by: Using a larger current. Using more turns of wire on the coil, using a 'soft ' iron core, bringing the poles closer together
