12 An iron ring is made up of two different materials A and B and also has anair (10)
gap of 2mm. The relative permeability of A is 1000 and B is 1500 while their
lengths are 75cm and 25 cm respectively. The cross sectional area of the core is
10cm’. The magnetizing coil has 1000 turns and a current of 10۸ is allowed to
flow through it. Calculate the i) the reluctance of part A, B and air gap ii) the
flux in the air gap iii) mmf corresponding to each of the 3 parts.
