If a magnetic substance is kept in a magnetic field then which of the following substances is thrown out?
Options
- AParamagnetic
- BFerromagnetic
- CDiamagnetic
- DAntiferromagnetic
Correct answer
C. Diamagnetic
Step-by-step solution
Magnetic substance when kept in a magnetic field is feebly repelled or thrown out if the substance is diamagnetic. This happens because the substance is feebly magnetised in the direction opposite to that of the field. The susceptibility of diamagnetic substance is negative. Paramagnetic substances are feebly attracted by a magnetic. array llll Ferromagnetic & substances & are & strongly array attracted by a magnet.
