When a magnetic material's molecules are all lined up, and increases in current flow no longer cause increases in magnetic field strength, the material has reached _____.

A) permeability
B) reluctance
C) saturation
D) residual magnetism

Saturation

The maximum amount of magnetic flux a material can hold.

Magnetic Field

The field produced by moving electric charges, magnets, and varying electric fields, influencing materials and charged particles within its vicinity differently from the initial definition provided.

Increases In Current

A phenomenon where the flow of electric charge (current) through a conductor or circuit becomes greater, often due to a decrease in resistance or an increase in voltage.

Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
When a magnetic material reaches a point where increases in current flow no longer cause increases in magnetic field strength, it is said to have reached saturation. This means that all the magnetic domains within the material are aligned, and the material cannot be further magnetized.
