Question

An example of a perfect diamagnet is a superconductor. This implies that when a superconductor is put in a magnetic field of intensity B, the magnetic field B inside the superconductor will be such that ______.

Options

  • Bs = -B

  • Bs = 0

  • Bs = B

  • Bs < B but Bs ≠ 0

MCQ

Solution

An example of a perfect diamagnet is a superconductor. This implies that when a superconductor is put in a magnetic field of intensity B, the magnetic field B inside the superconductor will be such that Bs = 0.

Explanation:

Magnetic field inside the superconductor is zero. as χ = -1 for super conductors

∴ μr = 1 + χ = 1 - 1 = 0

so, B = μH = 0
