Question
Which among the following is true about magnetic susceptibility?
✓
Answer
- It is the ratio of intensity of magnetization to magnetic intensity.
Magnetic susceptibility of a magnetic substance is defined as the ratio of the intensity of magnetization (I) to the magnetic intensity (H). The expression is given by:
$\text{Xm}=\frac{\text{I}}{\text{H}}$
Magnetic susceptibility measures the aptness of a magnetic substance to acquire magnetism. It is a unit less constant of magnetic substance.

In a laboratory experiment on emission from atomic hydrogen in a discharge tube, only a small number of lines are observed whereas a large number of lines are present in the hydrogen spectrum of a star. This is because in a laboratory:
- The amount of hydrogen taken is much smaller than that present in the star.
- The temperature of hydrogen is much smaller than that of the star.
- The pressure of hydrogen is much smaller than that of the star.
- The gravitational pull is much smaller than that in the star.
