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, \(\quad 100=10^{5} \times I\)

\(\therefore  \mathrm{I}=\frac{100}{10^{5}}=1\, \mathrm{mA}\)
