If be the apparent angles of dip observed in two vertical planes at right angles to each other, then the true angle of dip is given by
If θ1 and θ2 are the apparent angles of dip observed in two vertical planes at right angles, the true angle of dip θ is given by cot^2 θ = cot^2 θ1 + cot^2 θ2. This relation is derived from the vector addition of the horizontal and vertical components of the Earth's magnetic field.
The magnetic susceptibility is negative for
(d) As we know the relation between the magnetic permeability and susceptibility of material i.e.
...(i)
so, For diamagnetic substances,
so, according to equation (i), the magnetic susceptibility () of diamagnetic substance will be negative.
While in case of para and ferromagnetic substances, magnetic susceptibility is positive.
A compass needle which is allowed to move in a horizontal plane is taken to a geomagnetic pole.It
It will stay in any position at geomagnetic north and south poles.
A magnetic needle suspended parallel to a
magnetic field requires J of work to turn
it through . The torque needed to maintain
the needle in this position will be
In this case, work done
There are four light-weight-rod samples; A, B, C, D separately suspended by threads. A bar magnet is slowly brought near each sample and the following observations are noted:
(i) A is feebly repelled
(ii) B is feebly attracted
(iii) C is strongly attracted
(iv) D remains unaffected
Which one of the following is true?
Paramagnetic material will be feebly attracted, diamagnetic material will be feebly repelled and Ferromagnetic material will be strongly attracted.
A short bar magnet of magnetic moment is placed in a uniform magnetic field of The magnet is stable equilibrium when the potential energy is
We know that
For stable equilibrium
So,
=
A vibration magnetometer placed in a magnetic meridian has a small bar magnet. The magnet executes oscillations with a time period of 2s in earth's horizontal magnetic field of 24 T. When a horizontal field is 18 T is produced opposite to the earth's field by placing a current-carrying wire, the new time period of the magnet will be
Time period in vibration magnetometer
T=2
T
=
=
T = 4s
Electromagnets are made of soft iron because soft iron has :
Electromagnetics is made of soft iron because soft iron has low retentivity and low coercive force or low coercivity. Soft iron is a soft magnetic material.
The magnetic moment of a diamagnetic atom is
Atoms which have paired electrons have the magnetic moment zero. Because diamagnetism is the intrinsic property of every material and it is generated due to mutual interaction between the applied magnetic field orbital motion of electrons.
So, the magnetic moment of a diamagnetic atom is equal to zero.
