What is the function of solenoid? |
| Answer» A\xa0solenoid\xa0is a coil of insulated or enameled wire wound on a rod-shaped form made of solid iron, solid steel, or powdered iron. Devices of this kind can be used as electromagnets, as inductors in electronic circuits, and as miniature wireless receiving antennas.The device creates a magnetic field from electric current and uses the magnetic field to create linear motion.\xa0The\xa0solenoid\xa0simply\xa0works\xa0on the principle of “electromagnetism”. When the current flow through the coil magnetic field is generated in it, if you place a metal core inside the coil the magnetic lines of flux is concentrated on the core which increases the induction of the coil as compared to the air core. | |
