17 (b). The hysteresis loop of a soft iron piece has a much smaller area than that of a carbon steel piece. If the material is to go through repeated cycles of magnetisation, which piece will dissipate greater heat energy?

Material that has a greater area of hysteresis loop will dissipate more heat energy. Hence after going through repeated cycles of magnetization, a carbon steel piece dissipates greater heat energy than a soft iron piece, as the carbon steel piece has a greater hysteresis curve area.
