A current carrying wire establishes a magnetic field around the wire. How can the magnetic field be increased?
increase the current through the wire, increase the number of loop in the coil, use stronger magnet

What is the role of the split-ring commutator in an electric motor?
Reverse the direction of current for every half turn.

How can the speed of an electric motor be increased?
Increase the current, increase the number of turn in coil, increase the strength of magnetic field.

A transformer has a soft iron core. Describes why the core must be magnetically soft?
Magnetically soft iron means it can become demagnetised as the current switches direction and then re-magnetised with the field in the opposite direction.
