An
The electromagnet that exerts a greater force on others.
Answer to Problem 51A
The electromagnet A and B exert equal forces on each other.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction: When electric current flow through a wire wounded coil, its act as an electromagnet. The current creates a magnetic field around the coil.
Explanation: According to Newton’s third law, every action has equal and opposite reaction. Hence, the electromagnet A and B exert equal and opposite forces on each other.
Conclusion: Both electromagnets A and B exert equal forces on each other.
