Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
C

Area of hysteresis loop is proportional to net energy absorbed per unit volume by the material, as it taken over a complete cycle of magnetisation.
For electromagnets and transformers energy loss should be low.
i.e., thin hysteresis curves.
Also , when and should be small when .
