Magnetic Permeability Converter (H/m ↔ relative μ_r)

Convert magnetic permeability (μ) between absolute permeability in henry per metre (H/m, SI unit; equivalently N/A² or T·m/A) and relative permeability μ_r (dimensionless). Vacuum permeability μ₀ = 4π×10⁻⁷ H/m ≈ 1.25663706×10⁻⁶ H/m (defined pre-2019; since the 2019 SI redefinition it is a measured quantity with relative uncertainty 1.6×10⁻¹⁰, so the 4π×10⁻⁷ form is still exact for all engineering purposes). Relations used: μ = μ_r × μ₀ and μ_r = μ / μ₀ (magnetic susceptibility χ_m = μ_r − 1). Reference: vacuum μ_r = 1, copper 0.999994 (diamagnetic), aluminum 1.000022 (paramagnetic), iron ≈ 5000 (ferromagnetic).
