Which of the following is NOT a way to increase the strength of an electromagnet:
a) Increase the current through the electromagnet
b) Switch the direction of the current through the electromagnet
c) Place an iron core inside the electromagnet
d) Increase the number of coils of wire in the electromagnet

a) Increase the current through the electromagnet
b) Switch the direction of the current through the electromagnet
c) Place an iron core inside the electromagnet
d) Increase the number of coils of wire in the electromagnet
B -- Switching directions will just change the poles (the right hand rule)

Would you describe a refrigerator door as
a) magnetic
b) acting as a permanent magnet
c) having magnetic declination
d) being an electromagnet
e) capable of electromagnetic induction
a) magnetic -- can respond to forces from magnets, but it in itself is not a magnet
