The arc produced the stored magnetic
energy being discharged across the switch contacts. 10.12. Some materials retain their magnetism,
while others lose it.
Magnetic hysteresis loops describe the way which different materials
respond being magnetized.11 dependent upon the rate change magnetic flux and the num-

Magnetic hysteresis loops: (a) electromagnetic material and (b) permanent magnetic material.

A mutual inductance henry exists
between two coils when uniformly
varying current ampere per sec-

The core electromagnet required magnetize easily, and lose its
magnetism equally easily when switched off. 10. Some materials magnetize easily, and
some are difficult magnetize.

Magnetic hysteresis loops describe
the way which different materials
respond being magnetized. Suitable materials will, there-
fore, display narrow hysteresis loop, shown loop (a) Fig.
The emf induced coil such that shown the right-hand side Fig.
A mutual inductance henry exists between two coils when uniformly
varying current ampere per second one coil produces emf volt
in the other coil.
Materials from which permanent magnets are made should display wide
hysteresis loop, shown loop (b) Fig.
Energy stored magnetic field
When open the switch inductive circuit such electric motor
or fluorescent light circuit the magnetic flux collapses and produces an
arc across the switch contacts.

Magnetic hysteresis
There are many different types magnetic material and they all respond
differently being magnetized.Baisc Electrical Installation Work

When iron core subjected alternating magnetization, trans-
former, the energy loss occurs every cycle and constitutes continu-
ous power loss, and, therefore, for applications such transformers, a
material with narrow hysteresis loop required
