Where is the the pushing or pulling force of a magnet strongest?

• In the middle of the magnet

• At the ends of the magnet

• Same all the way through the magnet

• none of them

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.
