The $B-H$ curve for a ferromagnet is shown in the figure. The ferromagnet is placed inside a long solenoid with $1000 \text{ turns/cm}$. The current that should be passed in the solenoid to demagnetize the ferromagnet completely is

  • A
    $2 \text{ mA}$
  • B
    $1 \text{ mA}$
  • C
    $40 \text{ } \mu\text{A}$
  • D
    $20 \text{ } \mu\text{A}$
