Is the permeability of a ferromagnetic material independent of the magnetic field ? If not, is it more for lower or higher fields ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No, permeability of a ferromagnetic material is not independent of magnetic field. As a clear from the hysteresis curve, `mu` is greater for lower fields.
