• high permeability and high hysterisis loss

• low permeability and low hysterisis loss

The accurate measurement of emf can be obtained using

In fog, photographs of the objects taken with infrared radiations are more clear than those obtained during visible light because

• I-R radiation has lesser wavelength than visible radiation

• scattering of I-R light is more than visible light

• the intensity of I-R light from the object is less

• scattering of I-R light is less than visible light
