Which of these materials requires the least value of magnetic field strength to magnetize it?
Options
- ANickel
- BSilver
- CTungsten
- DSodium Chloride
Correct answer
A. Nickel
Step-by-step solution
The least value of magnetic field strength required to magnetize is nickel because it is a ferromagnetic material. is a ferromagnetic substance which gets strongly magnetized when placed in an external magnetic field. When external magnetic field , is applied the magnetic domains orient themselves in the direction of magnetic filed and grow in size.
Hence, requires least value of magnetic strength. is a diamagnetic material. Its field lines are repelled.
