Magnetization is dipole moment per unit volume; susceptibility measures ease of magnetization.

(a) Magnetization (MM): defined as the net magnetic dipole moment per unit volume of a magnetic material:

M=mnetVM = \frac{m_{net}}{V}

SI unit: ampere per metre (A/m). Dimensions: [M0L−1T0A1][M^0L^{-1}T^0A^1].

(b) Magnetic susceptibility (χm\chi_m): defined as the ratio of the magnetization MM acquired by a material to the magnetizing field intensity HH applied:

χm=MH\chi_m = \frac{M}{H} …
