A solenoid having 400 turns per metre has a core of a material with relative permeability 400. When a current of 0.5 A is passed through it, the magnetization of the core material in \(\mathrm{Am}^{-1}\) is nearly

  1. A \(6 \times 10^5\)
  2. B \(6 \times 10^4\)
  3. C \(8 \times 10^5\)
  4. D \(8 \times 10^4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(8 \times 10^4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Magnetic intensity,
\(\mathrm{H}=\mathrm{nI}=400 \times 0.5=200 \mathrm{Am}^{-1}\)
\(\mu_{\mathrm{r}}=1+\chi \Rightarrow \chi=\left(\mu_{\mathrm{r}}-1\right)\)
\(\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad \mathrm{M}=\chi \mathrm{H} & =\left(\mu_{\mathrm{r}}-1\right) \mathrm{H}=(400-1) \times 200 \\ & =7.98 \times 10^4 \mathrm{Am}^{-1} \\ & \approx 8 \times 10^4 \mathrm{Am}^{-1}\end{aligned}\)
