STANDARD Physics Magnetisation MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium
A solenoid has a core of a material with relative permeability of 500. The windings of the solenoid are insulated from the core and carry a current of 2 A. If the number of turns is 1000 per meter, then magnetisation is
A
7.78 × 10⁵ A m⁻¹
B
8.88 × 10⁵ A m⁻¹
C
9.98 × 10⁵ A m⁻¹
D
10.2 × 10⁵ A m⁻¹
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
The magnetisation M is given by M = nI(μᵣ - 1). With n = 1000 turns/m, I = 2 A, and μᵣ = 500, the calculation gives M = 1000 × 2 × (500 - 1) = 9.98 × 10⁵ A m⁻¹.
