Chapter 15: Problem 4

Which of the following is true? (A) Diamagnetism is temperature dependent (B) Paramagnetism is temperature dependent (C) Paramagnetism is temperature independent (D) None of the above

Short Answer

Expert verified
(B) Paramagnetism is temperature dependent.

Step by step solution

01

Statement A: Diamagnetism is temperature dependent

Diamagnetism occurs in materials where there are no unpaired electrons, and all atomic magnetic moments are paired. It is a weak, negative response to an applied magnetic field. The induced magnetization is independent of temperature. In this case, Statement A is false.
02

Statement B: Paramagnetism is temperature dependent

Paramagnetism occurs in materials with unpaired electrons, and their atomic magnetic moments are aligned parallel to an applied magnetic field. The susceptibility of a paramagnetic material (the degree to which it responds to a magnetic field) is inversely proportional to its temperature (Curie's Law). Therefore, the paramagnetic response decreases as the temperature increases. In this case, Statement B is true.
03

Statement C: Paramagnetism is temperature independent

This statement directly contradicts Statement B, which we have already determined to be true. As the paramagnetic susceptibility is inversely proportional to temperature, the paramagnetic property is not temperature-independent. Thus, Statement C is false.
04

Statement D: None of the above

Since Statement B is true, Statement D indicating that none of the statements are true is false. Based on our analysis, the correct answer is: (B) Paramagnetism is temperature dependent.

In which type of materials the magnetic susceptibility does not depend on temperature? (A) Diamagnetic (B) Paramagnetic (C) Ferromagnetic (D) Ferrite

Three identical bar magnets, each of magnetic moment \(M\), are placed in the form of an equilateral triangle with north pole of one touching the south pole of the other as shown. The net magnetic moment of the system is (A) Zero (B) \(3 M\) (C) \(\frac{3 M}{2}\) (D) \(M \sqrt{3}\)

Two identical wires \(A\) and \(B\), each of length \(\cdot \ell^{\prime}\), carry the same current I. Wire \(A\) is bent into a circle of radius \(R\) and wire \(B\) is bent to form a square of side \({ }^{\prime} \mathrm{a}\) '. If \(B_{\mathrm{A}}\) and \(B_{\mathrm{B}}\) are the values of magnetic field at the centres of the circle and square respectively, then the ratio \(\frac{B_{A}}{B_{B}}\) is (A) \(\frac{\pi^{2}}{16 \sqrt{2}}\) (B) \(\frac{\pi^{2}}{16}\) (C) \(\frac{\pi^{2}}{8 \sqrt{2}}\) (D) \(\frac{\pi^{2}}{8}\)

Ratio of radii of paths when an electron and a proton enters at right angles to a uniform field with (A) same velocity is \(\frac{1}{1840}\). (B) same momentum is 1 . (C) same kinetic energy is \(\frac{1}{43}\). (D) same kinetic energy is 43 .

A uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field are acting along the same direction in a certain region. If an electron is projected along the direction of the fields with a certain velocity then \([\mathbf{2 0 0 5}]\) (A) its velocity will increase. (B) its velocity will decrease. (C) it will turn towards left of direction of motion. (D) it will turn towards right of direction of motion.
