Question 23

A current-carrying solenoid produces a magnetic field around it. How do the strength of the magnetic field and the spacing of the magnetic field lines change if the current in the solenoid is decreased?

A

Spacing of field lines: closer together; Strength of field: stronger

B

Spacing of field lines: closer together; Strength of field: weaker

C

Spacing of field lines: further apart; Strength of field: stronger

D

Spacing of field lines: further apart; Strength of field: weaker
