Magnetic susceptibility ( ) is related to magnetic relative permeability ( _r ) by the relation
Options
- A= 1 / ( _r - 1)
- B= _r + 1
- C= _r - 1
- D1 / ( _r + 1)
Correct answer
C. = _r - 1
Step-by-step solution
The magnetic permeability of a material is given by = ₀ (1 + ) , where is the magnetic susceptibility. The relative magnetic permeability is defined as _r = ₀ . Substituting this into the first equation gives _r = 1 + . Rearranging the terms, we get = _r - 1 . Answer: = _r - 1
