Fundamentals of Magnetic Materials

Magnetic Materials: BSNL TTA JE


Materials that can be magnetized, which are also the ones that are strongly attracted to a magnet, are called ferromagnetic(or ferrimagnetic). These include ironnickelcobalt, some alloys of rare earth metals, and some naturally occurring minerals such as lodestone.
