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

Answer

Correct option: A.
A ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic.

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.
