Coercivity and retentivity of soft iron is
Coercivity and retentivity of soft iron is
Options
- Ahigh coercivity, high retentivity
- Blow coercivity, high retentivity
- Clow coercivity, low retentivity
- Dhigh coercivity, low retentivity
Correct answer
C. low coercivity, low retentivity
Step-by-step solution
Coercivity and retentivity of soft iron is low, because its magnetisation disappears easily on the removal of external magnetising field.
