This article explains the manner in which the force
of a solenoid varies with coil diameter, coil length, wire gauge,
supply voltage, packing density, and the number of turns.
Particular attention is given to explaining how force varies
with the number of turns, as the author has found that solenoid
behavior in this regard is often non-intuitive and surprising
for engineers who have only been exposed to basic magnetic
field expressions for coils.
