$A$ ferromagnetic material of volume $10^{-3} \, m^3$ is subjected to a magnetic field with a frequency of $50 \, Hz$. The area of the hysteresis loop is $0.1 \, M.K.S. \, \text{units}$. Calculate the energy dissipated in $1 \, \text{sec}$.

The area of the $B-H$ hysteresis loop is an indication of the

The figure illustrates how $B$,the flux density,inside a sample of ferromagnetic material varies with external magnetic field $B_0$. For the sample to be suitable for making a permanent magnet,

The coercivity of a magnet,where the ferromagnet gets completely demagnetized,is $3 \times 10^{3} \text{ A m}^{-1}$. The minimum current required to be passed in a solenoid having $1000 \text{ turns m}^{-1}$,so that the magnet gets completely demagnetized when placed inside the solenoid,is:

Answer the following questions:
$(a)$ Explain qualitatively on the basis of the domain picture the irreversibility in the magnetisation curve of a ferromagnet.
$(b)$ The hysteresis loop of a soft iron piece has a much smaller area than that of a carbon steel piece. If the material is to go through repeated cycles of magnetisation,which piece will dissipate greater heat energy?
$(c)$ '$A$ system displaying a hysteresis loop such as a ferromagnet,is a device for storing memory?' Explain the meaning of this statement.
$(d)$ What kind of ferromagnetic material is used for coating magnetic tapes in a cassette player,or for building 'memory stores' in a modern computer?
$(e)$ $A$ certain region of space is to be shielded from magnetic fields. Suggest a method.

The coercivity of a magnet is $5 \times 10^3 \text{ A/m}$. The amount of current required to be passed in a solenoid of length $30 \text{ cm}$ and the number of turns $150$,so that the magnet gets demagnetized when placed inside the solenoid is ............. $A$.
