  1. a ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic

  2. a paramagnetic material becomes diamagnetic

  3. a ferromagnetic material becomes diamagnetic

  4. a paramagnetic material becomes ferromagnetic.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The Curie temperature is the temperature above which ferromagnetic materials lose their permanent magnetic field, the magnetism completely disappears. Above Curie temperature, the material behaves para-magnetically.

A ferromagnetic material is placed in an external magnetic field. The magnetic domains 

  1. Increase in size

  2. Decrease in size

  3. May increase or decrease is size

  4. Have no relation with the field

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

When a ferromagnetic material is placed in an external magnetic field, the magnetic domains that are aligned with the field grow in size at the expense of those that are not, leading to magnetization.

The magnetic susceptibility is negative for

  1. Paramagnetic materials only

  2. Diamagnetic material only

  3. Ferromagnetic materials only

  4. paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Magnetic susceptibility is defined as the ratio of magnetization to the magnetic field intensity. For diamagnetic materials, the induced magnetization is in the opposite direction to the applied field, resulting in negative susceptibility.

The relative permeability of silicon is $0.99837$ and that of palladium is $1.00692$, choose the correct option from the following :

  1. silicon is paramagnetic and palladium is ferromagnetic

  2. silicon is ferromagnetic and palladium is paramagnetic

  3. silicon is diamagnetic and palladium is paramagnetic

  4. Both are paramagnetic

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Diamagnetic           Paramagnetic             Ferromagnetic
-1 $\leq$ $\chi$ < 0                  0 < $\chi$ < $\varepsilon$                  $\chi$ >> 1
0 $\leq$ $\mu _{r}$ < 1                1 < $\mu _{r}$ < 1+ $\varepsilon$               $\mu _{r}$ >> 1
$\chi$ $=$ magnetic susceptibility
$\mu _{r}$ $=$ relative permeability.
$\varepsilon$ < 1 and small.

Combination of notes that produced jarring effect on the ear is called

  1. discord

  2. harmony

  3. noise

  4. melody
