A paramagnetic material with \( \chi = 7 \times 10^{-4} \) in \( H = 3000 \, \text{A m}^{-1} \) has magnetization \( M \

**Magnetization M** is magnetic moment per unit volume (A/m), magnetic intensity H = B/μ₀ - M, susceptibility χ = M/H dimensionless, permeability μ = B/H = μ₀(1+χ), relative permeability μ_r = μ/μ₀ = 1+χ. For solenoid with core, B = μ₀ μ_r n I, n turns per meter (m⁻¹), I current (A). M = chi H . Given: chi = 7 × 10⁻⁴ , H = 3000 A m⁻¹ . M = 7 × 10⁻⁴ × 3000 = 2.1 A m⁻¹ . Substituting values gives 2.1 A m⁻¹, which matches expected magnitude for this magnetic configuration, confirming dipole field dependence on m/r³ and torque relation τ = m B sinθ.

A paramagnetic material with \( \chi = 1.5 \times 10^{-3} \) in \( H = 600 \, \text{A m}^{-1} \) has magnetization \( M

**Relation between B, H, M** is B = μ₀(H+M) = μ₀(1+χ)H. Susceptibility χ = μ_r -1 quantifies material response. Given B, μ_r, n, current I = B/(μ₀ μ_r n), with μ₀ = 4π×10⁻⁷ T·m/A, enabling current calculation for desired B with magnetic core. M = chi H . Given: chi = 1.5 × 10⁻³ , H = 600 A m⁻¹ . M = 1.5 × 10⁻³ × 600 = 0.9 A m⁻¹ . Substituting values gives 0.9 A m⁻¹, which matches expected magnitude for this magnetic configuration, confirming dipole field dependence on m/r³ and torque relation τ = m B sinθ.
