A paramagnetic sample has a relative permeability of at an absolute temperature of . What will be its relative permeability at ?
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
The relative permeability () of a magnetic material is related to its magnetic susceptibility () by the relation:
At , the initial susceptibility is:
According to Curie's law for paramagnetic materials, susceptibility is inversely proportional to absolute temperature ().
Therefore, the ratio of susceptibilities is:
The new relative permeability at is:
