Materials subjected to rapid reversal of magnetism should have______________?

Correct answer: B. high permeability and low hysteresis loss

  • A. large area oiB-H loop
  • B. high permeability and low hysteresis loss
  • C. high co-ercivity and high retentivity
  • D. high co-ercivity and low density

Explanation

Rapidly reversing magnetic materials should magnetise easily and waste little energy, requiring high permeability and a narrow B-H loop with low hysteresis loss. High coercivity and high retentivity are desirable for permanent magnets, not rapidly alternating applications.
