NEET Physics Magnetic Properties of Materials MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12

A solenoid has a core of a material with relative permeability μr=400\mu_r = 400. The windings of the solenoid carry a current of 2 A, with 1000 turns per metre. What is the magnetisation MM of the core material in A/m?

A

8×105A/m8 \times 10^5 A/m

B

7.98×105A/m7.98 \times 10^5 A/m

C

9×105A/m9 \times 10^5 A/m

D

7.5×105A/m7.5 \times 10^5 A/m

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The magnetisation MM is given by M=(μr1)HM = (\mu_r - 1)H. Using the field H=nI=1000×2.0=2000H = nI = 1000 \times 2.0 = 2000 A/m, M=399×2000=8×105M = 399 \times 2000 = 8 \times 10^5 A/m.
