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 μT. When a horizontal field is 18 μT is produced opposite to the earth's field by placing a current-carrying wire, the new time period of the magnet will be

Explanation

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

Explanation

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.

If a diamagnetic substance is brought near the north or the south pole of a bar magnet, it is

Explanation

Diamagnetic substance are weekly magnetised in a direction opposite to that of applied magnetic field. These are repelled in an external magnetic field i.e., have a tendency to move from high to low field region. 

A bar magnet having a magnetic moment of 2×104 JT-1 is free to rotate in a horizontal plane. A horizontal magnetic field B=6×10-4T exists in the space. The work done in taking the magnet slowly from a direction parallel to the field to a direction 60° from the field is

Explanation

The work done in rotating a magnetic dipole against the torque acting on it, when placed in magnetic field is stored inside it in the form of potential energy.

When magnetic dipole is rotated from initial position θ=θ1 to final position θ=θ2, then work done =MBcosθ1-cosθ2

=MB1-12

=2×104×6×10-42=6J

Curie temperature is the temperature above which -

Explanation

 

Ferromagnetism decreases with rise in temperature. If we heat a ferromagnetic substance, then at a definite temperature the ferromagnetic property of the substance suddenly disappears and the substance becomes paramagnetic. The temperature above which a ferromagnetic substance becomes paramagnetic is called the curie temperature of the substance. 
Note: The Curie temperature of Iron is 770°C and that of Nickel in 358°C.
