There are four light-weight-rod samples A, B, C, D separately suspended by threads. A bar magnet is slowly brought near each sample and the following observations are noted (i) A is feebly repelled (ii) B is feebly attracted (iii) C is strongly attracted (iv) D remains unaffected Which one of the following is true ?

  1. B is of a paramagnetic material
  2. C is of a diamagnetic material
  3. D is of a ferromagnetic material
  4. A is of a non-magnetic material

Answer

(1) B is of a paramagnetic material

Solution

As per NCERT, diamagnetic substances are feebly repelled, paramagnetic substances are feebly attracted and ferromagnetic substances are strongly attracted by a magnet.

A – diamagnetic, B – paramagnetic, C – ferromagnetic, D – non-magnetic

B is of a paramagnetic material.

Answer: (1)

A vibration magnetometer placed in magnetic meridian has a small bar magnet. The magnet executes oscillations with a time period of 2 s in earth's horizontal magnetic field of 24 microtesla. When a horizontal field of 18 microtesla is produced opposite to the earth's field by placing a current carrying wire, the new time period of magnet will be

  1. 1 s
  2. 2 s
  3. 3 s
  4. 4 s

If a diamagnetic substance is brought near the north or the south pole of a bar magnet, it is

  1. repelled by the north pole and attracted by the south pole
  2. attracted by the north pole and repelled by the south pole
  3. attracted by both the poles
  4. repelled by both the poles

A bar magnet having a magnetic moment of 2 104 J T-1 is free to rotate in a horizontal plane. A horizontal magnetic field B = 6 10-4 T exists in the space. The work done in taking the magnet slowly from a direction parallel to the field to a direction 60 from the field is

  1. 12 J
  2. 6 J
  3. 2 J
  4. 0.6 J
