    Which of the following statement related to hysteresis loop is incorrect?

    A) The curve of B against H for a ferromagnetic material is called hysteresis loop

    B) The area of B-H curve is a measure of power dissipated per cycle per unit area of the specimen

    C) Coercitivity is a measure of the magnetic field required to destroy the residual magnetism of ferromagnetic material

    D) The retentivity of a specimen is the measure of magnetic field remaining in the specimen when the magnetising field is removed

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The hysteresis loop i.e. area of B-H curve is a measure of energy dissipiated per cycle per unit  volume of the specimen. It depends on the nature of magnetic material.
