Explanation

The magnetic field of an electromagnet can be varied by changing the type of core, the number of turns in the coil, and the amount of current through the coil. The type of core affects the magnetic permeability, which determines how easily the magnetic field can be established. Increasing the number of turns in the coil increases the strength of the magnetic field. Finally, increasing the amount of current flowing through the coil increases the strength of the magnetic field according to Ampere's Law. Therefore, all of these factors can individually or collectively affect the magnetic field of an electromagnet.
