  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Magnetization. There are a variety of methods that can be used to establish a magnetic field in a component for evaluation using magnetic particle inspection. It is common to classify the magnetizing methods as either direct or indirect. With direct magnetization, current is passed directly through the component.Rubbing the nail with the permanent magnet causes a stronger, more lasting magnetism in the nail. For this to work, only one pole of the magnet must stroke the nail from one end to the other in a single direction. ... It usually takes around 20 to 30 strokes before the nail becomes sufficiently magnetized.

For a permanent magnet, properties of material should be

  1. high retentivity high coercivity

  2. low retentivity law coercivity

  3. high retentivity low coercivity

  4. low retentivity high coercivity

A Correct answer
Explanation

A permanent magnet needs to retain its magnetism (high retentivity) and resist demagnetization by external fields (high coercivity).

A rod of cross-sectional area $10$ $cm^2$ is placed with its length parallel to a magnetic field of intensity $1000$ ${A/m}$ , the flux through the rod is $10^4$ $webers$. Then the permeability of material of the rod is:

  1. $10^4$ ${wb/Am}$

  2. $10^3$ ${wb/Am}$

  3. $10^2$ ${wb/Am}$

  4. $10$ ${wb/Am}$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Magnetic field of intensity $(H)=1000\ A/m$
$Flux$ through rod $(\phi)=10^4 \ Wb$
Area of mass section $(A)=10\ cm^2 =10\times 10^{-4}m^2$
$\Rightarrow \ A=10^{-3}m^2$

we know,
$\boxed {B=\dfrac {\phi}{A}= \mu H}$           (where $B$ is magnetic flux density)
  $\Rightarrow \ \dfrac {10^4}{10^{-3}}= \mu (1000)$
$\ \Rightarrow \ \mu =\dfrac {10^4}{10^{-3} \times 1000}=10^4\ Wb /Am$

hence $\boxed {\mu =10^4 \ Wb/Am}$,

so $(A)$ option is correct

A domain in a ferromagnetic substance is in form of a cube of side length $1 \,\mu m$. It is contains $8 \times 10^{10}$ atoms and each atomic dipole has a moment of $9 \times 10^{-24} A \,m^2$, then the magnetization of the domain is then

  1. $7.2 \times 10^5 \,A \,m^{-1}$

  2. $7.2 \times 10^3 \,A \,m^{-1}$

  3. $7.2 \times 10^9 \,A \,m^{-1}$

  4. $7.2 \times 10^{12} \,A \,m^{-1}$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Magnitisation $= \dfrac{M}{v}$

$= \dfrac{8 \times 10^{10} \times 9 \times 10^{-24}}{(10 - 6)^3}$

$= 7.2 \times 10^5 \,Am^{-1}$

A permanent magnet in the shape of a thin cylinder of length $10$cm has magnetisation $(M) = 10^6 A m^{-1}$. It's magnetization current $I _M$ will be then

  1. $10^5$A

  2. $10^6$A

  3. $10^7$A

  4. $10^8$A

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Given,

$M=10^6 A/m$
$l=10cm=0.1m$
Magnetization, $M=\dfrac{I _M}{l}$ 
$I _M=Ml=10^6\times 0.1$
$I _M=10^5A$
The correct option is A.
