A solenoid of 500 turns $/ \mathrm{m}$ is carrying a current of 3 A. Its core is made of iron which has relative permeability 5001 . The magnitude of magnetization is
  1. $4.5 \times 10^6 \mathrm{Am}^{-1}$
  2. $6.0 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{Am}^{-1}$
  3. $7.5 \times 10^6 \mathrm{Am}^{-1}$
  4. $9.0 \times 10^6 \mathrm{Am}^{-1}$

Solution

Given: $\mathrm{n}=500$ turns $/ \mathrm{m}, \mathrm{I}=3 \mathrm{~A}$ $\begin{aligned} \mu_{\mathrm{r}}=5001 & \\ \therefore \quad \mu=\mathrm{nI} & =500 \times 3 \mathrm{~A} \\ & =1500 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m} \\ \text { But, } \chi_{\mathrm{m}} & =\mu_{\mathrm{r}}-1 \\ & =5001-1 \\ & =5000 \end{aligned}$ $\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad \text { Magnetization } \mathrm{M} & =\chi_{\mathrm{m}} \mathrm{H} \\ & =5000 \times 1500 \\ & =7.5 \times 10^6 \mathrm{Am}^{-1} \end{aligned}$ /
