  The divergences of both the length and time scales, at the magnetization-
reversal transition in Ising model under a pulsed field, have been studied in
the linearized limit of the mean field theory. Both length and time scales are
shown to diverge at the transition point and it has been checked that the
nature of the time scale divergence agrees well with the result obtained from
the numerical solution of the mean field equation of motion. Similar growths in
length and time scales are also observed, as one approaches the transition
point, using Monte Carlo simulations. However, these are not of the same nature
as the mean field case. Nucleation theory provides a qualitative argument which
explains the nature of the time scale growth. To study the nature of growth of
the characteristic length scale, we have looked at the cluster size
distribution of the reversed spin domains and defined a pseudo-correlation
length which has been observed to grow at the phase boundary of the transition.
