COMEDK · Physics · 20. Magnetic Properties of Matter

Curie-Weiss law is obeyed by iron

  1. A at Curie temperature only
  2. B at all temperatures
  3. C below Curie temperature
  4. D above Curie temperature
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) above Curie temperature

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Ferromagnetic materials like iron obeys Curie-Weiss law above its Curie temperature. According to Curie-Weiss law, magnetic susceptiblity \((\chi)\) of ferromagnetic material is related with temperature \(T\) as \[ \chi=\frac{C}{T-T_{C}} \] where, \(C=\) Curie constant and…
