ractive force may be weighed by arranging the core uponone end of a balance arm, with the solenoid directly below it,and placing weights in the scale pan to balance the force ofthe currents field upon the iron. While balanced, as inFig. 175, test the polarity of the bar by a compass, and it… … Soft Iron Uciyht which is consequently S-polarity (S where lines enter), theyemanate from the lower or N-end and pass through the coil.Place the solenoid nearer to the core, or lower the core to it,and the pull isconsiderably in-creased, as notedby the additionalweights required tobe added to…
