Q131 / 199 · NEET 2008 (Mains) · Physics

Curie temperature is the temperature above which

A
Ferromagnetic material becomes diamagnetic material
Correct answer
B
Ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic material
C
Paramagnetic material becomes diamagnetic material
D
Paramagnetic material becomes ferromagnetic material

Solution

Above curie temperature domains break down, hence ferromagnetic substances become paramagnetic.

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