Important Questions on Properties of Magnetic Materials

EASY
IMPORTANT

A paramagnetic liquid is filled in a glass U-tube of which one limb is placed between the pole pieces of an electromagnet. When the field is switched on the liquid in the limb which is in the field will

EASY
IMPORTANT

When a diamagnetic substance is brought near North or South pole of a bar magnet, it is

EASY
IMPORTANT

The temperature at which a ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic is called a

EASY
IMPORTANT

Liquid oxygen remains suspended between the two pole faces of a magnet because it is

EASY
IMPORTANT

Which one of the following is a non-magnetic substance?

EASY
IMPORTANT

If a diamagnetic solution is poured into a U-tube and one arm of this U-tube placed between the poles of a strong magnet with the meniscus in a line with the field, then the level of the solution will

EASY
IMPORTANT

Assertion: The properties of paramagnetic and ferromagnetic substances are not affected by heating.
Reason: As temperature rises, the alignment of molecular magnets gradually decreases.

EASY
IMPORTANT

Assertion: The ferromagnetic substances do not obey Curie's law.

Reason: At Curie point, ferromagnetic substances start behaving as a paramagnetic substance.

MEDIUM
IMPORTANT

Assertion: Basic difference between an electric line and magnetic line of force is that former is discontinuous and the latter is continuous or endless.

Reason: No electric lines of forces exist inside a charged conductor but magnetic lines do exist inside a magnet.

EASY
IMPORTANT

Assertion: If one arm of a U-tube containing a diamagnetic solution is placed in between the poles of a strong magnet with the level in line with the field, the level of the solution falls.

Reason: Diamagnetic substances are repelled by the magnetic field.

EASY
IMPORTANT

Assertion: Steel is not attracted by a magnet

Reason: Steel is not a magnetic substance.

EASY
IMPORTANT

The only property possessed by ferromagnetic substance is

EASY
IMPORTANT

Assertion: χn-T graph for a diamagnetic material is a straight line parallel to T-axis.

Reason: This is because the susceptibility of a diamagnetic material is not affected by temperature.
