Question

Identify the expression for magnetic intensity from the following.

(a) H = \(\frac {B_o}{\mu_o}\)

(b) H = Bo × μo

(c) H = \(\frac {2B_o}{\mu_o}\)

(d) H = \(\frac {B_o}{2\mu_o}\)

I have been asked this question in unit test.

This interesting question is from Magnetisation and Magnetic Intensity in division Magnetism and Matter of Physics – Class 12

Answer 1

Correct answer is (a) H = \(\frac {B_o}{\mu_o}\)

The best explanation: Magnetic intensity in vacuum is defined as the ratio of applied magnetic field (Bo) to the permeability of free space (μo). Magnetic intensity is denoted by H. The expression is given by:

H = \(\frac {B_o}{\mu_o}\)
