Question:

The SI units of magnetic susceptibility are : 

Options:

Am

Unitless

A/m

H/m

Correct Answer:
Unitless

Explanation:
Magnetic susceptibility is the measure of the degree of magnetization of a material in response to the externally applied magnetic field. Because, magnetization (M) and magnetic field intensity (H) both have the same units A/m. Thus, magnetic susceptibility is a dimensionless unit.
