Magnetic properties
1. A coil of wire 0.20 m long and having 200 turns carries a current of 10 A.
(a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field strength H?
(b) Compute the flux density B if the coil is in a vacuum.

the coil.The susceptibility for titanium is given in Table 18.2.
(d) Compute the magnitude of the magnetization M.
2. It is possible to express the magnetic susceptibility xm in several different units.

For the discussion of this chapter, xm was used to designate the volume
susceptibility in SI units, that is, the quantity that gives the magnetization per
unit volume (m3) of material when multiplied by H. The mass susceptibility xm
(kg) yields the magnetic moment (or magnetization) per kilogram of material
when multiplied by H; similarly, the atomic susceptibility xm(a) gives the
magnetization per kilogram mole. The last two quantities are related to xm
through the relationships
When using the cgs–emu system, comparable parameters exist, which may be
designated by xmʹ, xmʹ(g), and xmʹ (a); the xm and xmʹ are related in accordance
with Table 18.1. From Table 18.2, xm for silver is -2.38 x 10-5; convert this value
into the other five susceptibilities.
