COMEDK · Physics · 20. Magnetic Properties of Matter

The magnetic permeability '\(\mu\)' a of a paramagnetic substance is :

  1. A \(\mu=1\)
  2. B \(\mu=0\)
  3. C \(\mu>1\)
  4. D \(\mu\) is infinite
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mu>1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The magnetic permeability \(\mu\) of a material is related to its relative permeability \(\mu_{r}\) by the relation \(\mu = \mu_{0} \mu_{r}\). For a paramagnetic substance, the magnetic susceptibility \(\chi\) is small and positive. The relative permeability is given by…
