Abhishek and Deepak have two samples of magnetic materials X and Y. Experimentally they determine the following properties of the samples.
| | Retentivity | Coercivity |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| X | 1.5 T | 20 Am?¹ |
| Y | 1.0 T | 100 Am?¹ |
Considering this, choose best choice

Based on theory.
M = µ? NiA
Here
µ? = Relative permeability
N = Number of turns
i = Current
A = Area of cross section
M = µ? NiA = µ? nliA
M = µ? niV = 1000 (1000) (0.5) (10? ³) = 500 = 5 × 10²Am²
For permanent magnet, both retentivity & coercivity should be high.
