If we make small holes in a magnet, then what will be the effect on its magnetic moment?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the effect of making small holes in a magnet on its magnetic moment, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Magnetic Moment The magnetic moment (\( \mu \)) of a magnet is a measure of its strength and orientation in a magnetic field. It is defined as the product of the magnetic pole strength and the distance between the poles. ### Step 2: Consider the Volume of the Magnet The magnetic moment is directly proportional to the volume of the magnet that is magnetized. If the volume of the magnet decreases, the magnetic moment will also decrease. ...
