Diamagnetic material susceptibility χ is: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Diamagnetic material susceptibility χ is:
A. Small negative
B. Large negative
C. Large positive
D. Small positive
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Diamagnets: χ ≈ -10⁻⁵ (small negative), weakly repelled by magnetic fields. Paramagnets: small +χ; Ferromagnets: large +χ. Memory tip: 'Diamagnetic: χ < 0, weak repulsion'. Magnetism classification frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #1 Report Error
According to the Equation of Continuity in fluid dynamics, when water flows through a pipe of varying cross-section, the velocity of the fluid is:
A. Independent of the cross-sectional area.
B. Directly proportional to the square of the cross-sectional area.
C. Directly proportional to the cross-sectional area.
D. Inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area.

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
The Equation of Continuity states that for an incompressible, non-viscous fluid in streamlined flow, the mass flow rate is constant. Therefore, A1V1 = A2V2, where A is the area of cross-section and V is the velocity. This means V is inversely proportional to A (V ∝ 1/A). As the pipe narrows, the fluid speeds up.

A fuse wire has
A. Low melting point, high resistance
B. High melting point, low resistance
C. Low melting point, low resistance
D. High melting point, high resistance

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Fuse wire must melt easily (low MP) and develop enough heat (high R) to break circuit on overload.
