Which of these materials requires the least value of magnetic field strength to magnetize it?

Options

  1. ANickel
  2. BSilver
  3. CTungsten
  4. 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. NiNi is a ferromagnetic substance which gets strongly magnetized when placed in an external magnetic field. When external magnetic field B0{B}_{0}, is applied the magnetic domains orient themselves in the direction of magnetic filed and grow in size.

Hence, NiNi requires least value of magnetic strength. NaClNaCl is a diamagnetic material. Its field lines are repelled.
