A long solenoid has 500500 turns per meter and carries a current of 4 A4\text{ A}. When the space inside the solenoid is filled with a magnetic material, the fractional increase in the magnetic field is observed to be 2×10−52 \times 10^{-5}. The magnetization of the core material is:

Options

  1. A2×10−5 A/m2 \times 10^{-5}\text{ A/m}
  2. B2000 A/m2000\text{ A/m}
  3. C0.04 A/m0.04\text{ A/m}
  4. D8×10−5 A/m8 \times 10^{-5}\text{ A/m}

Correct answer

C. 0.04 A/m0.04\text{ A/m}

Step-by-step solution

The fractional increase in the magnetic field inside the solenoid is equal to the magnetic susceptibility χ\chi of the material.

Therefore, χ=2×10−5\chi = 2 \times 10^{-5}.

The magnetic intensity HH inside the solenoid is given by H=nIH = nI, where nn is the number of turns per unit length and II is the current.

H=500×4=2000 A/mH = 500 \times 4 = 2000\text{ A/m}.

The magnetization MM of the material is related to the magnetic intensity by the relation M=χHM = \chi H.

M=(2×10−5)×2000=0.04 A/mM = (2 \times 10^{-5}) \times 2000 = 0.04\text{ A/m}.

Answer: 0.04 A/m0.04\text{ A/m}
