When a magnetic material is subjected to a magnetizing field of intensity 2×103 A/m2 \times 10^3 \text{ A/m}, it produces a magnetization of 8×103 A/m8 \times 10^3 \text{ A/m} inside the material. The absolute magnetic permeability of the material is :
(μ0\mu_0 is the permeability of free space)

Options

  1. A4μ04\mu_0
  2. B3μ03\mu_0
  3. C1.25μ01.25\mu_0
  4. D5μ05\mu_0

Correct answer

D. 5μ05\mu_0

Step-by-step solution

The magnetic susceptibility χ\chi is defined as the ratio of magnetization MM to the magnetizing field intensity HH.

χ=MH\chi = \dfrac{M}{H}

Given:
M=8×103 A/mM = 8 \times 10^3 \text{ A/m}
H=2×103 A/mH = 2 \times 10^3 \text{ A/m}

χ=8×1032×103=4\chi = \dfrac{8 \times 10^3}{2 \times 10^3} = 4

The relative magnetic permeability μr\mu_r is related to susceptibility by:
μr=1+χ\mu_r = 1 + \chi
μr=1+4=5\mu_r = 1 + 4 = 5

The absolute magnetic permeability μ\mu is given by:
μ=μ0μr=5μ0\mu = \mu_0 \mu_r = 5\mu_0

Answer: 5μ05\mu_0
