Question
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: $\left[ M ^0 L ^{-1} T ^0 I ^1\right]$
