A ferromagnet will become fully magnetized at_________________?
Correct answer: C. Alternating current at its peak value
- A. High voltage A.C
- B. Low voltage A.C
- C. Alternating current at its peak value
- D. D.C current at peak value
Explanation
For an alternating magnetizing current, the magnetic field reaches its greatest value when the current is at its peak, allowing a ferromagnet to reach magnetic saturation. Low-voltage AC, the likely mistaken choice, is not the deciding condition because magnetization depends on the magnetizing field or current, not voltage alone.

About Magnetic Flux Density
Magnetic flux density measures the magnetic force acting on a current carrying conductor or moving charge in a magnetic field. Work includes the relations B equals F divided by IL and F equals qvB, the tesla as its SI unit, field direction and the distinction between flux density and magnetic flux.
