Question

Dissimilarities between a current carrying solenoid and a bar magnet.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Similarities between a Bar Magnet and a Solenoid

1)Bar magnet and solenoid both have attractive and directive properties ie, to align itself along the external magnetic field.

2) The magnetic field at the axial point is the same for both.

3) The magnetic moment is the same for both.

Answer 2

☆ Dissimilarities between a current carrying solenoid and a bar magnet :

• ✠ The strength of magnetic field due to a solenoid can be changed by changing the current in it, while the strength of magnetic field due to a bar magnet cannot be changed.

• ✠ The direction of magnetic field due to a solenoid can be reversed by reversing the direction of current in it, but the direction of magnetic field due to a bar magnet cannot be reversed.
