NEET2007PhysicsMagnetic Properties of MatterActual
Assertion : Ferro magnetic substances become paramagnetic above Curie temperature. Reason : Domains are destroyed at high temperature.
Options
- AIf both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
- BIf both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
- CIf assertion is true but reason is false
- DIf both assertion and reason are false.
Correct answer
A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
Step-by-step solution
The assertion is true. From Curie Weiss law where the susceptibility ( = C (T- _C ) ). If the temperature rises above the Curie temperature ( _C ), ferromagnetic materials become paramagnetic materials because the domains get destroyed as stated.
