Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Definition: Paramagnetic Substances
Substances which when placed in a magnetic field are feebly magnetised in the direction of the magnetising field are called paramagnetic substances.
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Key Points: Paramagnetism
- Relative permeability ranges: μr > 1 (as B is slightly greater than μ₀H); (1 + ε) ≥ μr > 1, μ > μ0
- Diamagnetic: B < B0; Bm < B0
- Magnetic susceptibility (χ): low and positive, χ ≈ 1; small, positive, varies inversely with temperature, χm ∝ \[\frac {1}{T}\] (Curie law)
- Magnetic moment: very low but not zero
- Intensity of magnetisation (I) vs H: I is small, positive, varies linearly with H (I and H in same direction, value of I is low)
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Law: Curie's Law (Paramagnetic substances)
The magnetic susceptibility of a paramagnetic material varies inversely with its absolute temperature. Mathematically,
χm ∝ \[\frac {1}{T}\]
On cooling, paramagnetic substances get converted to ferromagnetic materials at the Curie temperature.
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11
Definition: Curie Temperature
The minimum temperature at which the domain structure of a ferromagnetic substance collapses completely and it is converted into a paramagnetic substance is called Curie temperature.
