Question:

What is a soft magnet???????????

*Best answer gets 10 points* Thank you all in advance :D

Answer:

Soft magnetic materials are those materials that are easily magnetised and demagnetised. They typically have intrinsic coercivity less than 1000 Am-1. They are used primarily to enhance and/or channel the flux produced by an electric current. The main parameter, often used as a figure of merit for soft magnetic materials, is the relative permeability (mr, where mr B/moH, which is a measure of how readily the material responds to the applied magnetic field. The other main parameters of interest are the coercivity, the saturation magnetisation and the electrical conductivity. www.magnets.bham.ac.uk/magnetic_m. images.google.fr/imgres?imgurlht.
