A paramagnetic material has a relative permeability of 1.0061.006 at a temperature of 300300 K. When the material is heated to 400400 K, its new relative permeability will be:

Options

  1. A1.0081.008
  2. B1.00451.0045
  3. C0.75450.7545
  4. D0.00450.0045

Correct answer

B. 1.00451.0045

Step-by-step solution

The initial relative permeability is μr1=1.006\mu_{r1} = 1.006.
The initial magnetic susceptibility χ1\chi_1 is given by:
χ1=μr1−1=1.006−1=0.006\chi_1 = \mu_{r1} - 1 = 1.006 - 1 = 0.006

According to Curie's Law for paramagnetic materials, the magnetic susceptibility is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature (χ∝1T\chi \propto \dfrac{1}{T}).

χ2χ1=T1T2\dfrac{\chi_2}{\chi_1} = \dfrac{T_1}{T_2}

χ2=0.006×300400=0.006×34=0.0045\chi_2 = 0.006 \times \dfrac{300}{400} = 0.006 \times \dfrac{3}{4} = 0.0045

The new relative permeability μr2\mu_{r2} at 400400 K is:
μr2=1+χ2\mu_{r2} = 1 + \chi_2
μr2=1+0.0045=1.0045\mu_{r2} = 1 + 0.0045 = 1.0045

Answer: 1.00451.0045
