MCQ
Curie temperature is the temperature above which:
  • A
    A ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic.
  • B
    A paramagnetic material becomes diamagnetic.
  • C
    A ferromagnetic material becomes diamagnetic.
  • D
    A paramagnetic material becomes ferromagnetic.

Answer

  1. A ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic.

Explanation:

Curie Tempearture is the temperature at which certain materials lose their permanent magnetic properties, to be replaced by induced magnetism. In other words, it is the temperature above which a ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic.
