The coercivity of a magnet is 5 103 A/m. The amount of current required to be passed in a solenoid of length 30 cm and the number of turns 150, so that the magnet gets demagnetised when inside the solenoid is A.
Answer
10
Solution
Coercivity = magnetic intensity H needed to demagnetise the magnet.
Inside a solenoid: H = nI, n = Nl = 1500.3 = 500 m-1
I = Hn = 5 103500 = 10 A
Answer: 10
