The hysteresis cycle curve for the material of a permanent magnet is:

The hysteresis cycle curve for the material of a permanent magnet is:

  • A. short and wide
  • B. tall and narrow
  • C. tall and wide
  • D. short and narrow

Step-by-step solution

Permanent magnets require materials with high remanence (tall loop) and high coercivity (wide loop) to retain magnetization. Therefore, the hysteresis loop is tall and wide.
