II. Short Answer Questions:

Question 1.
What is meant by magnetic induction?
Answer:
The magnetic induction (total magnetic field) inside the specimen \(\vec { B } \) is equal to the sum of the magnetic field \(\vec { B } \)0 produced in vacuum due to the magnetising field and the magnetic field \(\vec { B } \)m due to the induced magnetisation of the substance.
\(\vec { B } \) = \(\vec { B } \)0 + \(\vec { B } \)m = µ0\(\vec { H } \) + µ0\(\vec { I } \) = µ0 (\(\vec { H } \) + \(\vec { I } \)) = (\(\vec { H } \) + \(\vec { I } \))

Each electron has finite orbital magnetic dipole moments.Each atom has a net magnetic dipole moment.Have net dipole moment as in a paramagnetic material.
Since the orbital planes are oriented in a random manner, the vector sum of magnetic moments is zero.Due to the random orientation of the magnetic moments, the net magnetic moment of the material is zero.Within each domain, the magnetic moments are spontaneously aligned in a direction.
The resultant magnetic moment for each atom is zero.There is a net magnetic dipole moment induced in the direction of the applied field.Since the direction of magnetisation varies from domain to domain, the net magnetisation of the specimen is zero.

Discuss the variation of magnetic induction \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) with magnetising field H in a ferromagnetic material, with the graph.
Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Physics Guide Chapter 3 Magnetism and Magnetic Effects of Electric Current 60

  1. A ferromagnetic material is magnetised slowly.
  2. The magnetic induction \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) increases from point A, then attains a saturated level.
  3. This is plotted as AC in the graph.

Saturation magnetization:

  1. The maximum point up to which the material can be magnetised.
  2. Further on reducing magnetising field, the magnetic induction also decreases.
  3. It does not retrace the original path CA. It takes a different path CD.
  4. When the magnetising field is zero, the magnetic induction is not zero. It has a positive value.

Remanence or Retentivity:

  1. The ability of the materials to retain the magnetism when \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{H}}\) = 0 . (AD)
  2. To demagnetise the material, \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{H}}\) gradually increases in reverse direction.
  3. \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) decreases along DE and at E, \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) = 0.
  4. AE brings the residual magnetism to zero.

Coercivity:

  1. For the reverse magnetising field, the residual magnetism vanishes.
  2. On increasing \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{H}}\), \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) also increases along EF, till the saturation point at F.
  3. If \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{H}}\) decreased or increased, it traces the path FGKC.
  4. This closed curve ACDEFGK is called hysteresis loop, (cycle of magnetisation)
  5. In this cycle, \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) lags behind \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\)
  6. Lagging of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) behind \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) is called hysteresis.
  7. Hysteresis means “lagging behind”.
