Question

Magnetic susceptibility for a paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials is respectively ______.

Options

• small, positive and small, positive

• large, positive and small, negative

• small, positive and small, negative 

• large, negative and large, positive

Answer 1

Magnetic susceptibility for a paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials is respectively small, positive and small, negative.

Explanation:

(Relation between magnetic permeability and susceptibility)

B = (1 + X)H

X = for paramagnetic positive and small

X' = for diamagnetic negative and small
