Explain the magnetization of a material.
✓
Answer
Magnetization: a. The ratio of magnetic moment to the volume of the material is called magnetization. b. It is denoted by $\overrightarrow{ M }$. c. If a magnetic specimen of volume ' $V$ ' acquires net magnetic dipole moment ' $m_{\text {net' }}$ ' due to the magnetizing field, then $\overrightarrow{ M }=\frac{ m _{\text {net }}}{ V }$ d. It is a vector quantity. e. Unit: $Am ^{-1}$ in $SI$ system. f. Dimensions: $\left[ M ^0 L ^{-1} T ^0 I ^1\right]$
