Q. With which of the following materials the tape of the tape-recorder is coated?
Answer: Ferromagnetic powder
Notes: The tape itself is actually very simple. It consists of a thin plastic base material, and bonded to this base is a coating of ferric oxide powder. The oxide is normally mixed with a binder to attach it to the plastic, and it also includes some sort of dry lubricant to avoid wearing out the recorder.
