Q76 / 90 · JEE Main 2019 (12 Jan Shift 2) · Physics

A paramagnetic material has 1028 atoms m-3. Its magnetic susceptibility at temperature 350 K is 2.8×10-4. Its susceptibility at 300 K is

  • A
    3.726x10-4
  • B
    2.672x10-4
  • Correct answer
    C
    3.267x10-4
  • D
    3.672x10-4

Solution

From Curie's law, the magnetic susceptibility is inversely proportional to the temperature, i.e.,

χ∝1T

Hence, the ratio of magnetic susceptibility at different temperature T1=350 K and T2=300 K.

χ2χ1=T1T2

χ2=χ1×T1T2=2.8×10-4×350300

χ2=3.267×10-4.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
