Magnetic Field When a current is passed through the coiled wire, the electric current generates a magnetic field that causes the magnetic atoms within the iron domains to align. Eventually, the iron reaches its point of maximum magnetism, or saturation, and generates a strong magnetic field. Air core = weak magnetic field Iron core = strong magnetic field 8 - File Name - 15/06/2012

AC Sine Wave A waveform is a representation of how alternating current (AC) varies with time. The most familiar AC waveform is the sine wave, which derives its name from the fact that the current or voltage varies with the sine of the elapsed time. 15 - File Name - 15/06/2012
