Magnetisation M of a sample is defined as its:
ANet magnetic moment per unit volume
BNet magnetic flux per unit area
CTotal current per unit length
DNet force per unit pole strength
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Net magnetic moment per unit volume
Magnetisation is the vector sum of atomic moments divided by the volume of the sample.
