  • D 40 μA40\,\mu A

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Given that,

In the solenoid there is 1000 turns in 1 cm.

∴    \therefore\,\,\,\, In 100 cm or 1 m no of turns

= 1000 ×\times 100 = 105 turns/m

∴    \therefore\,\,\,\, No of turns, n = 105

Correctivity of ferromagnet, H = 100 A/m

As we know,

H = n I

∴    \therefore\,\,\,\, I = 100105=1mA{{100} \over {{{10}^5}}} = 1mA

∴    \therefore\,\,\,\, Current to demagnetise the ferromagnet = 1 mA.
