Problem 3.279

When a ball made of uniform magnetic is introduced into an external uniform magnetic field with induction B0\mathbf{B}_{0}, it gets uniformly magnetized. Find the magnetic induction B\mathbf{B} inside the ball with permeability μ\mu; recall that the magnetic field inside a uniformly mag netized ball is uniform and its strength is equal to H=J/3,\mathbf{H}^{\prime}=-\mathbf{J} / \overrightarrow{3}, where JJ is the magnetization.

Reveal Answer
B=3B0μ/(2+μ)\mathbf{B}=3 \mathbf{B}_{0} \mu /(2+\mu)
