A paramagnetic sample shows a net magnetisation

Question:

A paramagnetic sample shows a net magnetisation of $6 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m}$ when it is placed in an external magnetic field of $0.4 \mathrm{~T}$ at a temperature of $4 \mathrm{~K}$. When the sample is placed in an external magnetic field of $0.3 \mathrm{~T}$ at a temperature of $24 \mathrm{~K}$, then the magnetisation will be:

  1. (1) $1 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m}$

  2. (2) $4 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m}$

  3. (3) $2.25 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m}$

  4. (4) $0.75 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m}$


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

(4) For paramagnetic material. According to curies law

$\chi \propto \frac{1}{T}$

For two temperatures $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$

$\chi_{1} T_{1}=\chi_{2} T_{2}$

But $\chi=\frac{I}{B}$

$\therefore \frac{I_{1}}{B_{1}} T_{1}=\frac{I_{2}}{B_{2}} T_{2}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{6}{0.4} \times 4=\frac{I_{2}}{0.3} \times 24 \Rightarrow I_{2}=\frac{0.3}{0.4}=0.75 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m}$
