A diamagnetic material in a magnetic material moves:

Correct answer: D. In none of the above directions

  • A. From stronger to the weaker parts of the field
  • B. From weaker to the stronger parts of the field
  • C. Perpendicular to the field
  • D. In none of the above directions

Explanation

Diamagnetic materials are weakly repelled by magneticfields. As a result, when placed in a non-uniform magneticfield, they will experience a net force pushing them from theregion of higher field strength to the region of lower fieldstrength.

About Physics of Solids

Solids are compared through crystal structure, amorphous arrangement, elasticity, plastic deformation, stress, strain and Young’s modulus. Electrical behavior depends on available charge carriers and band structure, so conductors, insulators and semiconductors must be distinguished from mechanical properties such as strength, stiffness and brittleness.
