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.
