4) Define an Electromagnet?

An electromagnet is an object that acts like a magnet, but its magnetic force is created and controlled by
electricitythus the name electromagnet. By wrapping insulated wire around a piece of iron and then running
electrical current through the wire, the iron becomes magnetized. This happens because a magnetic field is

 created around a wire when it has electrical current running through it. Creating a coil of wire concentrates the
field. Wrapping the wire around an iron core greatly increases the strength of the magnetic field.

5) What do you mean by right hand rule?

To find the direction the magnetic field is going, you can use the right-hand rule to determine it. If you take your
right hand and wrap it around the wire, with your thumb pointing in the direction of the electrical current (positive
to negative), then your fingers are pointing in the direction of the magnetic field around the wire.

 6) Give some strength of electromagnetic fields.

Following are the some of the major strengths of electromagnetic fields-

Unit

The unit of magnetic force is called the tesla (T). Near a strong magnet the force is 1-T. Another unit used is the

gauss, where 104 gauss (10,000) equals 1 tesla.

Current

The strength of the magnetic field is proportional to the current in the wire. If you double the current, the magnetic

force is doubled.

Since Voltage = Current x Resistance (V = I*R), you can double the current in a wire by doubling the voltage of
the source of electricity.

Turns of coil

If we wrap the wire into a coil, you increase the magnetic force inside the coil, proportional to the number of turns.

In other words, a coil consisting of 10 loops has 10 times the magnetic force as a single wire with the same

current flowing through it. Likewise, a coil of 20 loops has 2 times the magnetic force than one with 10 loops.

Varies with distance

The magnetic force decreases with distance. It varies inversely proportional to the square of the distance. For

example the force at 2 cm. from a wire is 1/4 that of at 1 cm. and the force at 3 cm. is 1/9 the force at 1 cm.

7) What do you mean by electromagnetic induction?

Electromagnetic induction is a process where a conductor placed in a changing magnetic field causes the
production of a voltage across the conductor. This process of electromagnetic induction, in turn, causes an
electrical current it is said to induce the current.

8) What do you mean by magnetic flux?

Magnetic flux is the magnetic lines of force produced by a magnet. It is measured by the unit Weber. A Weber
(Wb) is equal to 100,000,000 maxwell(s). Flux density (B), a measure of the strength of a wave, is equal to the
number of magnetic lines of flux per square meter in terms of the unit Tesla (T), where B = Wb/A.

9) What is an electromagnetic wave?

Electromagnetic waves are formed when an electric field couples with a magnetic field. The magnetic and
electric fields of an electromagnetic wave are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of the wave.

 10) State the applications of electromagnetism.

Primary electromagnetic device is the relay. The action of the armature, spring, and coil is the same in all
relays. Notice, however, the schematics are only different as far as the contacts are concerned. Relays are
usually used to control high-voltage switching (contact use) with a low-voltage control application (the coil
winding). They may also be used as remote control devices. Relay contacts are normally open (until armature
action closes them) or normally closed (until armature action opens them). Contacts have pole configurations
similar to switches.

11) What do you mean by argument passing mechanism in C language?

The exact mechanism for assigning arguments to parameters, called argument passing, depends upon
the evaluation strategy used for that parameter (typically call-by-value), which may be specified using keywords.
When we pass a value either by value or by reference in Visual Basic, then it is known as the
Passing Parameter. The Passing Mechanism is related to different programming languages like C and Visual
basic. There are different ways of passing argument which are stated as follows:

 12) What is an Argument in c programming?

Arguments are more properly thought of as the actual values or references assigned to the parameter variables

when the subroutine is called at runtime. Arguments are the type of variables that can be used by the functions in
C language. An Argument is similar to a parameter and is something that has been passed to a function.

For Example,

int main(int argc, char **argv);

argc and argv are the arguments which are being passed into the main function.

13) What do you mean by call by value and call by reference argument passing mechanism?

When passing data by value, the data is copied to a local variable/object in the function. Changes to this data
are not reflected in the data of the calling function. For larger objects, passing data by value can be very
expensive.
When passing data by reference, a pointer to the data is copied instead. Changes to the data pointed to by the
pointer are reflected in the data of the calling function. Regardless of the size of the object, passing data by
reference always has the same cost.

14) What is the difference between users defined function and library function?

User Defined Functions has to be Developed by the user at the time of writing a program like Main() while library
defined functions are already defined in the library of C and cannot be further modified like Printf().

15) What are the advantages of user-defined function?

Following are the advantages of user-defined function:

It facilitates top down programming.

It can be used by any other program.

Length of program can be reduced and makes debugging easier.
