Each atom of an iron bar of volume 5cm3 has a magnetic moment 1.8×10-23 Am2. What will be the magnetic moment of the bar in the state of magnetic saturation.

[Density of iron=7.8×103 kg/m3, Atomic weight of iron 56, Avogadro's number, N=6.02×1023 /gm-mole.]

Hint: magnetic moment at saturation= sum of atomic moment of all atoms.
