Magnetism Question 293

Question: A bar magnet has coercivity $ 4\times 10^{5},A{{m}^{-1}} $ . It is desired to demagnetise it by inserting it inside a solenoid 12 cm long and having 60 turns. The current that should be sent through the solenoid is

Options:

A) 2 A

B) 4 A

C) 6 A

D) 8 A

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] $ n=\frac{N}{l}=\frac{60}{0.12}=500,,,turn,,,metr{{e}^{-1}} $
$ \Rightarrow ,,,i=\frac{H}{n}=\frac{4\times 10^{3}}{500}=8A $
