Electromagnetic Induction (pHet simulation) is...

• the use of the movement of magnets around a coil of wire to create an electrical current through the wire

• the use of the movement of electricity around a coil of wire to create an electrical current through the wire

This is a picture of a simple electromagnet. How can the electromagnet be made stronger?

• Add more coils of wire to the nail.
• Use a smaller battery.
• Reverse the poles of the magnet.
• Remove all the coils and the nail.
