Electrical resistance of certain materials, known as superconductors, changes abruptly from a nonzero value to zero as their temperature is lowered below a critical temperature TC(0). An interesting property of superconductors is that their critical temperature becomes smaller than TC (0) if they are placed in a magnetic field, i.e., the critical temperature TC (B) is a function of the magnetic field strength B. The dependence of TC (B) on B is shown in the figure.
Q.1. In the graphs below, the resistance R of a superconductor is shown as a function of its temperature T for two different magnetic fields B1 (solid line) and B2 (dashed line). If B2 is larger than B1 which of the following graphs shows the correct variation of R with T in these fields?
