A magnetizing field of 1000 A/m produces a magnetic flux of 2.4 x 10-5 Wb in an iron bar of cross-sectional area 0.3 cm2.The magnetic permeability of the iron bar in SI unit is
Magnets are used in many devices like electric bells, telephones, radio, loudspeakers, motors, fans, screwdrivers, lifting heavy iron loads, super-fast trains, especially in foreign countries, refrigerators, etc.
Magnetite is the world’s first magnet. This is also called a natural magnet. Though magnets occur naturally, we can also impart magnetic properties to a substance. It would be an artificial magnet in that case.
