MCQ
Among the following _____ has the highest retentivity.
  • A
    Aluminium
  • B
    Steel
  • C
    Nickel
  • D
    Soft iron

Answer

  1. Steel

Explanation:

The power of magnetism after the inducing agency is removed, is called Retentivity of a substance.

Retentivity is used for remanence measured in units of magnetic flux density.

Steel retains magneto-field longer, iron acquires the field easier but decays sooner.
