bonus 1) You want to induce an electrical current by moving a magnet through coils of wire. You have a magnet that you've mounted on an electrical cart that moves with a set constant speed. You'll run that cart on an elevated track that you'll wrap coils of wire around. You have a fixed length of wire to wrap to make your coils. To maximize the amount of current you'll induce, should you bend your wire into fewer larger coils, or more smaller coils?
