A long solenoid has 10001000 turns per meter and carries a current of 3 A3\text{ A}. When a certain magnetic material is introduced inside the solenoid to completely fill its core, the magnetic field inside increases by 4%4\%. The magnetization of the core material is

Options

  1. A3000 A/m3000\text{ A/m}
  2. B3120 A/m3120\text{ A/m}
  3. C12000 A/m12000\text{ A/m}
  4. D120 A/m120\text{ A/m}

Correct answer

D. 120 A/m120\text{ A/m}

Step-by-step solution

The percentage increase in the magnetic field is given by χm×100%\chi_m \times 100\%, where χm\chi_m is the magnetic susceptibility of the core material.

Given that the percentage increase is 4%4\%, we have:

χm=4100=0.04\chi_m = \dfrac{4}{100} = 0.04

The magnetic intensity HH inside the solenoid is determined by the number of turns per unit length nn and the current II:

H=nI=1000×3=3000 A/mH = nI = 1000 \times 3 = 3000\text{ A/m}

The magnetization MM of the core material is related to the magnetic intensity by:

M=χmHM = \chi_m H

M=0.04×3000=120 A/mM = 0.04 \times 3000 = 120\text{ A/m}

Answer: 120 A/m120\text{ A/m}
