The \(B-H\) curve for a ferromagnet is shown in the figure. The ferromagnet is placed inside a long solenoid with \(1000\, turns/cm\) . The current that should be passed in the solenoid to demagnetise the ferromagnet completely is

  1. A \(2\,mA\)
  2. B \(1\,mA\)
  3. C \(40\,\mu A\)
  4. D \(20\,\mu A\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(1\,mA\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given Number of turns, \(\mathrm{n}=1000\) \(turns/\)\(\mathrm{cm}=1000 \times 100\) \(turns\) \(/ \mathrm{m}\) Coercivity of ferromagnet. \(\mathrm{H}=100 \,\mathrm{A} / \mathrm{m}\) Current to demagnetise the ferromagnet, \(I=?\) Using, \(H=n I\) or,…
