A diamagnetic material in a magnetic field moves

Question

A diamagnetic material in a magnetic field moves (A) from stronger to the weaker parts of the field (B) from weaker to the stronger parts of the field (C) perpendicular to the field (D) in none of the above directions

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Since diamagnetic substance gets magnetised in opposite direction. Therefore, it will try to reduce the magnetic field in the direction of magnetising field.And therefore, diamagnetic material shifts towards the region in which magnetising field is weaker.
