The substance which is repelled or opposed by applied magnetic field is:

Correct answer: A. Diamagnetic

  • A. Diamagnetic
  • B. Paramagnetic
  • C. Ferromagnetic
  • D. All of these

Explanation

Diamagnetic materials create an induced magnetic fieldopposite to the applied field, so they are weakly repelled andmove from stronger to weaker regions of the field.

About Physics of Solids

Solids are compared through crystal structure, amorphous arrangement, elasticity, plastic deformation, stress, strain and Young’s modulus. Electrical behavior depends on available charge carriers and band structure, so conductors, insulators and semiconductors must be distinguished from mechanical properties such as strength, stiffness and brittleness.
