Lavanya Menon answered |
- The discovery that one particular pole of a magnet orients northward, whereas the other pole orients southward allowed people to identify the north and south poles of any magnet.
- It was then noticed that the north poles of two different magnets repel each other, and likewise for the south poles. Conversely, the north pole of one magnet attracts the south pole of other magnets.
- This situation is analogous to that of electric charge, where like charges repel and unlike charges attract. In magnets, we simply replace the charge with a pole: Like poles repel and unlike poles attract.

Sarthak Bansal answered |
According to recent researches the magnetic field of earth is considered due to a large bar magnet situated in earth's core.
It is considered that the north pole of this large magnet is situated at the geographical south of earth and vice versa and as the magnetic field due to a bar magnet is from north pole to south pole of the maget thus the earth's magnetic field is considered from geographical south to geographical north which are respectively north and south poles of the bar magnet.

Sankar Singh answered |
Calculation of Magnetic Field B in the Core
Given:
Mean radius of Rowland ring, r = 15 cm = 0.15 m
Number of turns of wire, N = 3500
Relative permeability of ferromagnetic core, μr = 800
Magnetising current, I = 12 A
The magnetic field B in the core of Rowland ring can be calculated using the formula:
B = (μ0 * N * I) / (2 * r)
where, μ0 is the permeability of free space
μ0 = 4π * 10^-7 Tm/A
Substituting the given values in the formula,
B = (4π * 10^-7 Tm/A * 3500 * 12 A) / (2 * 0.15 m)
B = 4.48 T
Therefore, the magnetic field B in the core of Rowland ring for a magnetising current of 12 A is 4.48 T, which is option A.

Hansa Sharma answered |
In electromagnetism the magnetic susceptibility (Latin: susceptibilis, “receptive”; denoted X) is a measure of how much a material will become magnetized in an applied magnetic field. Mathematically, it is the ratio of magnetization M(magnetic moment per unit volume) to the applied magnetizing field intensity H.

Ahtesham Rashid answered |
It is because when we make a group of electrons inside the material it is called domain. So when we apply external magnetic field on the material. Those domains start to align themselves in the direction of magnetic field. BUT NOT ALL DOMAINS ALIGN THEMSELVES IN THAT DIRECTION. So option D is correct.

If a magnet is suspended over a container of liquid air, it attracts droplets to its poles. The droplets contain only liquid oxygen; even though nitrogen is the primary constituent of air, it is not attracted to the magnet. Explain what this tells you about the magnetic susceptibilities of oxygen and nitrogen, and explain why a magnet in ordinary, room-temperature air doesn’t attract molecules of oxygen gas to its poles.

Jyoti Kapoor answered |
In physics, Gauss's law for magnetism is one of the four Maxwell's equations that underlie classical electrodynamics. It states that the magnetic field B has divergence equal to zero,in other words, that it is a solenoidal vector field. It is equivalent to the statement that magnetic monopoles do not exist.Rather than "magnetic charges", the basic entity for magnetism is the magnetic dipole. (If monopoles were ever found, the law would have to be modified, as elaborated below.)
Gauss's law for magnetism can be written in two forms, a differential form and an integral form. These forms are equivalent due to the divergence theorem.
The name "Gauss's law for magnetism"is not universally used. The law is also called "Absence of free magnetic poles";one reference even explicitly says the law has "no name".It is also referred to as the "transversality requirement"because for plane waves it requires that the polarization be transverse to the direction of propagation.

Shubham Jain answered |
Paramagnetic materials are those materials that are weakly attracted by a magnetic field. They have unpaired electrons in their outermost shell, which causes a net magnetic moment due to the spin and orbital motion of the electrons.
Orbital and Spin Magnetic Moments:
- Orbital magnetic moment: It is the magnetic moment of an electron due to its motion around the nucleus.
- Spin magnetic moment: It is the magnetic moment of an electron due to its intrinsic spin.
Order of Bohr Magneton:
- Bohr magneton is a unit of magnetic moment, which is equal to approximately 9.27 x 10^-24 joules per tesla.
- The orbital and spin magnetic moments of electrons in paramagnetic materials are of the order of Bohr magneton.
Explanation of Option A:
- Option A states that the orbital and spin magnetic moments of electrons in paramagnetic materials are of the order of Bohr magneton.
- This is correct because the unpaired electrons in paramagnetic materials have a net magnetic moment due to their spin and orbital motion, which is of the order of Bohr magneton.
- This magnetic moment causes the paramagnetic material to be weakly attracted to a magnetic field.
Other Options:
- Option B states that the orbital magnetic moments of electrons in paramagnetic materials are zero, which is incorrect because the unpaired electrons have an orbital magnetic moment.
- Option C states that the orbital and spin magnetic moments of electrons in paramagnetic materials are less than zero, which is incorrect because magnetic moments cannot be negative.
- Option D states that the spin magnetic moments of electrons in paramagnetic materials are zero, which is incorrect because the unpaired electrons have a spin magnetic moment.

To find the total magnetic field on the normal bisector of the magnet at the same distance as the null point, we need to consider the contributions from both the magnet and the Earth's magnetic field.
1. Magnetic Field due to the Magnet:
The null points on the axis of the magnet indicate that the field due to the magnet is equal and opposite to the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field. Therefore, the horizontal component of the magnet's field at the null point is equal to the Earth's magnetic field.
Given that the null point is at a distance of 14 cm from the center of the magnet, we can use the formula for the magnetic field along the axis of a short bar magnet:
B = (μ₀/4π) * (2M/(d³))
Where:
B is the magnetic field
μ₀ is the permeability of free space (4π x 10^-7 Tm/A)
M is the magnetic moment of the magnet
d is the distance from the center of the magnet
Since the null point is at 14 cm from the center, the distance from the center to the null point is 7 cm (0.07 m). The magnetic field due to the magnet at this point is equal to the Earth's magnetic field, which is given as 0.36 G (1 G = 10^-4 T).
2. Total Magnetic Field:
The total magnetic field on the normal bisector at the same distance from the center of the magnet can be found by vector addition of the Earth's magnetic field and the magnetic field due to the magnet.
Since the angle of dip is zero, the Earth's magnetic field is entirely horizontal. Therefore, the total magnetic field will be the vector sum of the Earth's magnetic field and the magnetic field due to the magnet.
The total magnetic field is given by:
B_total = √(B_magnet² + B_earth² + 2B_magnetB_earthcosθ)
Where:
B_magnet is the magnetic field due to the magnet
B_earth is the Earth's magnetic field
θ is the angle between the two fields (which is 180° since they are opposite in direction)
Plugging in the values:
B_total = √((0.36 G)² + (0.36 G)² + 2(0.36 G)(0.36 G)cos180°)
B_total = √(0.1296 G² + 0.1296 G² - 2(0.1296 G²))
B_total = √(0.2592 G² - 0.2592 G²)
B_total = √0 G²
B_total = 0 G
Therefore, the total magnetic field on the normal bisector of the magnet at the same distance as the null point is 0 G. None of the given options (a, b, c, d) match the correct answer.

Production of Magnetic Field
Magnetic field can be produced in various ways. The correct answer is option 'D', which states that a magnetic field can be produced using a permanent magnet or electric current. Let's discuss both of these methods in detail.
Using a Permanent Magnet
A permanent magnet is a magnet that retains its magnetic properties even in the absence of an external magnetic field. The magnetic field produced by a permanent magnet is due to the alignment of its atomic dipoles. The magnetic field produced by a permanent magnet is static and does not change in strength or direction over time.
Using an Electric Current
An electric current is a flow of electric charge through a conductor. When an electric current flows through a conductor, it produces a magnetic field around the conductor. The strength and direction of the magnetic field depend on the strength and direction of the current flowing through the conductor. The magnetic field produced by an electric current is dynamic and can change in strength and direction over time.
Conclusion
In conclusion, a magnetic field can be produced using a permanent magnet or electric current. While the magnetic field produced by a permanent magnet is static, the magnetic field produced by an electric current is dynamic and can change in strength and direction over time.

The magnetic field at any axial point is given by, B = 2μo/ 4πx3
Similarly, the field at any equatorial point is given by, B = μo/ 4πx3
Thus, the field at any equatorial point is half of what it is at an axial point.

Magnetic poles exist in pairs. It is not possible to isolate a north pole or a south pole. Magnetic field lines start from the north pole and go to the south pole and return to the north pole. They form continuous closed loops unlike electric lines of force which do not as an electric monopole, a single charge does exist.

Comparing Solenoid and Bar Magnet
Introduction:
Solenoid and bar magnet are two types of magnets that have different properties. However, there are some similarities between them. In this question, we need to identify the case where there is no exact similarity between solenoid and bar magnet.
Answer:
The correct answer is option 'A' - "There is a current entering and a current leaving a solenoid". Let's understand why this is the correct answer.
Solenoid:
A solenoid is a coil of wire that produces a magnetic field when an electric current is passed through it. The magnetic field produced by a solenoid is similar to that of a bar magnet. However, there are some differences.
Bar Magnet:
A bar magnet is a permanent magnet that has a north pole and a south pole. The magnetic field of a bar magnet is uniform and is strongest at the poles.
Comparison:
Now let's compare the two magnets based on the given options.
a) There is a current entering and a current leaving a solenoid:
This is a property unique to solenoids. When an electric current is passed through a solenoid, there is a current entering at one end and a current leaving at the other end. This is because a solenoid is a coil of wire that is wrapped around a core. As a result, the magnetic field produced by a solenoid is concentrated inside the coil and is weaker outside.
b) Solenoid can be broken into two weaker solenoids:
This is a property that is similar to a bar magnet. A bar magnet can be broken into two weaker magnets, each with its own north and south pole. Similarly, a solenoid can be broken into two weaker solenoids, each with its own magnetic field.
c) Flux lines enter one end of a solenoid:
This is a property that is similar to a bar magnet. The magnetic field of a bar magnet is uniform and the flux lines enter at one end and exit at the other end. Similarly, the magnetic field of a solenoid is strongest at the ends and the flux lines enter at one end and exit at the other end.
d) Moving a small compass needle in the neighbourhood of a solenoid enables tracing the flux lines:
This is a property that is similar to a bar magnet. The magnetic field of a bar magnet can be visualized using iron filings or a small compass needle. Similarly, the magnetic field of a solenoid can be visualized using a small compass needle.
Conclusion:
Based on the above comparison, we can see that option 'A' is the correct answer as it is the only option that is unique to solenoids and does not have a similar property in bar magnets.

Such materials are called ferromagnetic, after the Latin word for iron, ferrum. Not only do ferromagnetic materials respond strongly to magnets (the way iron is attracted to magnets), they can also be magnetized themselves—that is, they can be induced to be magnetic or made into permanent magnets.

Explanation:North pole act as positive end and South pole act as negative end. The iron fillings in the presence of magnetic field gets magnetized and form a tiny magnet which then gets attracted to the poles of bar magnet. North pole of bar magnet attracts south pole of tiny magnet and vice-versa. So all the iron fillings are arranged as the magnetic field lines of bar magnet.

A ferromagnetic substance contains permanent atomic magnetic dipoles that are spontaneously oriented parallel to one another even in the absence of an external field. The magnetic repulsion between two dipoles aligned side by side with their moments in the same direction makes it difficult to understand the phenomenon of ferromagnetism. It is known that within a ferromagnetic material, there is a spontaneous alignment of atoms in large clusters. A new type of interaction, a quantum mechanical effect known as the exchange interaction, is involved. A highly simplified description of how the exchange interaction aligns electrons in ferromagnetic materials is given here.

When a diamagnetic material is placed in an external magnetic field the spin motion of electrons is so modified that the electrons which produce the moments in the direction of the external field show down while the electrons which produce magnetic moments in opposite directions get accelerated.
Thus, a net magnetic moment is induced in the opposite direction of the applied magnetic field. Hence the substance is magnetized opposite of the external field. Thus, it moves from stronger. Weaker parts of the magnetic.

Remanence or remanent magnetization or residual magnetism is the magnetization left behind in a ferromagnetic material (such as iron) after an external magnetic field is removed. It is also the measure of that magnetization. Colloquially, when a magnet is "magnetized" it has remanence.The remanence of magnetic materials provides the magnetic memory in magnetic storage devices, and is used as a source of information on the past Earth's magnetic field in paleomagnetism.The equivalent term residual magnetization is generally used in engineering applications. In transformers, electric motors and generators a large residual magnetization is not desirable (see also electrical steel) as it is an unwanted contamination, for example a magnetization remaining in an electromagnet after the current in the coil is turned off. Where it is unwanted, it can be removed by degaussing.Sometimes the term retentivity is used for remanence measured in units of magnetic flux density.

Rajdeep Sengupta answered |
When a parametric material comes close to a magnetic field the atoms will align with the magnetic field which causes another magnetic field. Permeability is the total magnetic field divided by the original magnetic field. Increase in temperature makes it harder for the atoms to align which decreases the strength of the second field. This results in a lower total magnetic field (numerator) and thus lower permeability.

Atomic Structure and Diamagnetism/Paramagnetism
Diamagnetism and paramagnetism are the two types of magnetism that an element can exhibit. Diamagnetic elements are those that have all their electrons paired up and do not have any unpaired electrons. Paramagnetic elements, on the other hand, have one or more unpaired electrons and are attracted to a magnetic field.
The features of atomic structure that determine whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic are as follows:
Orbital Angular Momentum and Spin Angular Momentum
The orbital angular momentum and spin angular momentum of an electron are two important properties of atomic structure that determine whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic. These properties are related to the magnetic moment of an electron, which is a measure of the strength of its magnetic field.
Diamagnetic elements have all their electrons paired up, which means that their magnetic moments cancel out and they have no net magnetic moment. In contrast, paramagnetic elements have one or more unpaired electrons, which means that they have a net magnetic moment and are attracted to a magnetic field.
Atomic Weight
The atomic weight of an element is the average weight of all the isotopes of that element. This property does not directly determine whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic, but it can indirectly affect the magnetic properties of an element. Heavier elements tend to have more unpaired electrons, which makes them more likely to be paramagnetic.
Number of Electrons
The number of electrons in an atom is another important feature of atomic structure that determines whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic. Elements with an odd number of electrons are more likely to be paramagnetic because they have at least one unpaired electron. Elements with an even number of electrons can be either diamagnetic or paramagnetic, depending on whether their electrons are paired or unpaired.
Principal Quantum Number
The principal quantum number of an electron is a measure of its energy level. This property does not directly determine whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic, but it can indirectly affect the magnetic properties of an element. Electrons with higher energy levels are more likely to be unpaired, which makes them more likely to be paramagnetic.
Conclusion
In summary, the orbital angular momentum and spin angular momentum of an electron are the features of atomic structure that determine whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic. Other features, such as atomic weight, number of electrons, and principal quantum number, can indirectly affect the magnetic properties of an element.

The number of electrons in an atom is another important feature of atomic structure that determines whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic. Elements with an odd number of electrons are more likely to be paramagnetic because they have at least one unpaired electron. Elements with an even number of electrons can be either diamagnetic or paramagnetic, depending on whether their electrons are paired or unpaired.
Principal Quantum Number
The principal quantum number of an electron is a measure of its energy level. This property does not directly determine whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic, but it can indirectly affect the magnetic properties of an element. Electrons with higher energy levels are more likely to be unpaired, which makes them more likely to be paramagnetic.
Conclusion
In summary, the orbital angular momentum and spin angular momentum of an electron are the features of atomic structure that determine whether an element is diamagnetic or paramagnetic. Other features, such as atomic weight, number of electrons, and principal quantum number, can indirectly affect the magnetic properties of an element.

All substances show some kind of magnetic behaviour. After all, they are made up of charged particles: electrons and protons. It is the way in which electron clouds arrange themselves in atoms and how groups of these atoms behave that determines the magnetic properties of the material. The atom (or group of atoms) in effect becomes a magnetic dipole or a mini bar magnet that can align according to the magnetic field applied. The net effect of all these dipoles determines the magnetic properties of the Magnetic Materials.

For a short Bar Magnet, the magnetic induction at a point on the axis at a distance r from centre is given by the formula
B= (μ0/4π) (2M/r3)
⇒ B= K/ r3
⇒ B∝1/r3
The correct answer is option D.
B= (μ0/4π) (2M/r3)
⇒ B= K/ r3
⇒ B∝1/r3
The correct answer is option D.
