The B-H curve for a ferromagnet is shown in the figure. The ferromagnet is placed inside a long solenoid with 1000 turns/cm.. The current that should be passed in the solenoid to demagnetize the ferromagnet completely is:
Options
- A2 ~mA
- B1 ~mA
- C40 A
- D20 A
Correct answer
B. 1 ~mA
Step-by-step solution
Given Number of turns, n =1000 turns / cm =1000 100 turns / m Coercivity of ferromagnet, H =100 ~A / m Current to demagnetise the ferromagnet, I =? Using, H = nI or, 100=10^5 I I = 100 10^5 =1 ~mA
