Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below. Assertion : Dia-magnetic materials can exhibit magnetism. Reason : Dia-magnetic materials have permanent magnetic dipole moment.

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Diamagnetic materials do not have a permanent magnetic dipole moment; they are characterized by their ability to create an induced magnetic field in a direction opposite to an externally applied magnetic field. Therefore, the assertion is true (diamagnetic materials can exhibit magnetism in the presence of an external magnetic field), but the reason is false.

Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below. Assertion : A paramagnetic sample displays greater magnetisation when it is cooled. Reason : The magnetisaution does not depend on temperature.

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

For paramagnetic materials, the magnetization increases as the temperature decreases. This is because the thermal agitation of the atoms reduces, allowing the magnetic dipoles to align more easily with the external magnetic field. Hence, the assertion is true, but the reason is false since magnetization does depend on temperature.

Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below. Assertion : Two short magnets are placed on a cork which floats on water. The magnets are placed such that the axis of one produced bisects the axis of other at right angles. Then the cork has neither translational nor rotational motion. Reason : Net force on the cork is zero.

Explanation

When two short magnets are placed on a cork such that their axes are perpendicular, the magnetic forces balance each other out, resulting in no net force or torque acting on the cork. This means the cork will have neither translational nor rotational motion. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion.

Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below. Assertion : The magnetic field produced by a current carrying solenoid is independent of its length and cross-sectional area Reason : The magnetic field inside the solenoid is uniform.

Explanation

Both the assertion and reason are true. A current-carrying solenoid produces a magnetic field that is uniform and independent of its length and cross-sectional area. However, the reason does not explain why the magnetic field is independent of these factors.

Which one of the following bonds produces a solid that reflects light in the visible region and whose electrical conductivity decreases with temperature and has high melting point?

Explanation

Metallic bonding is formed due to attraction of valence (free) electrons with the positive ion cores.Their conductivity decreases with rise of temperature.When visible light falls on a metallic crystal, the electrons of atom absorb visible light, so they are opaque to visible light.However, some orbital state.They then return to their normal state, remitting light of same frequency.

(b) M=iπr2=ev2πr×πr2M=12evr

The field normal to the plane of a wire of n turns and radius r which carries a current i is measured on the axis of the coil at a small distance h from the centre of the coil. This is smaller than the field at the centre by the fraction

Explanation

(a)  Field at the centre  B1=μ04π×2πinr=μ02·nir

      Field at a distance from the centre

      B2=μ04π·2πnir2(r2+h2)3/2=μ02·nir2r31+h2r23/2     =B11+h2r2-3/2 =B11-32·h2r2

              (By binomial theorem)

     Hence B2 is less than B1 by a fraction =32h2r2
