MCQ
Assertion : A paramagnetic sample display greater magnetisation (for the same magnetic field) when cooled.

Reason : The magnetisation does not depend on temperature.

  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • C
    If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

Answer

Correct option: D.
If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
d
A paramagnetic sample display greater magnetisation when cooled, this is because at lower temperature, the tendency to disrupt the alignment of dipoles (due to magnetising field) decreases on account of reduced random thermal motion.

Young's modulus is determined by the equation given by $\mathrm{Y}=49000 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\ell} \frac{\text { dyne }}{\mathrm{cm}^2}$ where $\mathrm{M}$ is the mass and $\ell$ is the extension of wre used in the experiment. Now error in Young modules $(\mathrm{Y})$ is estimated by taking data from $M-\ell$ plot in graph paper. The smallest scale divisions are $5 \mathrm{~g}$ and $0.02$ $\mathrm{cm}$ along load axis and extension axis respectively. If the value of $M$ and $\ell$ are $500 \mathrm{~g}$ and $2 \mathrm{~cm}$ respectively then percentage error of $\mathrm{Y}$ is :
