Question

A diamagnetic substance is placed in a magnetic field of a bar magnet. Then it is (A) repelled by magnet (B) attracted by magnet (C) attracted by S-poles and repelled by N-pole (D) attracted by N-pole and repelled by S-pole

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Diamagnetic substances are feebly repelled by a magnet, when placed in a magnetising field they are feebly magnetised in a direction opposite to that of the field. This is due to negative susceptibility of diamagnetic substance.
