(a)
What happens when a bundle of wires of soft iron is placed inside the coil of a solenoid carrying a steady current? Name the device obtained. Why is it called so ?
(b)
Draw the magnetic field lines inside a current carrying solenoid. What does this pattern of magnetic field lines indicate ?
Marking-scheme solution
It gets magnetised
Electromagnet.
It behaves as a magnet only when current passes through the solenoid.
This pattern indicates that the magnetic field is uniform.
