Magnetic fields around current carrying conductor. The iron core the transformer not solid but made
up very thin sheets called laminations, improve efficiency.17 consists two coils
called the primary and secondary coils windings, wound a
common core. Figure 5.
A transformer will only work alternating supply, will not normally
work from D. Winding the coil around a
soft iron core increases the flux density because the lines magnetic flux
concentrate the magnetic material.Basic scientific concepts electrotechnology

A current flowing coil wire solenoid establishes magnetic field
which very similar that bar magnet.C. The advantage the electromagnet
when compared with the permanent magnet that the magnetism the
electromagnet can switched and off functional switch control-
ling the coil current. This effect put practical use the electrical relay
as used motor starter alarm circuit.
