Needles \(\mathrm{N}_{1}, \mathrm{~N}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{N}_{3}\) are made of a ferromagnetic, a paramagnetic and a diamagnetic substance respectively. A magnet when brought close to them will (a) Attract \(\mathrm{N}_{1}\) strongly, \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) weakly and repel \(\mathrm{N}_{3}\) weakly (b) Attract \(\mathrm{N}_{1}\) strongly, but repel \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{N}_{3}\) weakly (c) Attract all three of them (d) Attract \(\mathrm{N}_{1}\) and \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) strongly but repel \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
The correct answer is (a) Attract \(N_{1}\) strongly, \(N_{2}\) weakly, and repel \(N_{3}\) weakly.

Step by step solution

01

Considering the properties of ferromagnetic materials

A ferromagnetic material has a strong magnetic moment and gets attracted to a magnetic field. When a magnet is brought close to a ferromagnetic material, it will be attracted strongly.
02

Considering the properties of paramagnetic materials

A paramagnetic material has a weak magnetic moment and gets attracted to a magnetic field but to a smaller extent compared to ferromagnetic materials. When a magnet is brought close to a paramagnetic material, it will be attracted weakly.
03

Considering the properties of diamagnetic materials

A diamagnetic material has no inherent magnetic moment and gets weakly repelled by a magnetic field. When a magnet is brought close to a diamagnetic material, it will be repelled weakly.
04

Matching the results with the given options

According to our analysis: - N1, which is made of a ferromagnetic substance, will be attracted strongly - N2, which is made of a paramagnetic substance, will be attracted weakly - N3, which is made of a diamagnetic substance, will be repelled weakly Comparing these findings with the given options, we can conclude that the correct answer is (a) Attract N1 strongly, N2 weakly, and repel N3 weakly.

In a mass spectrometer used for measuring the masses of ions, the ions are initially accelerated by an ele. potential \(\mathrm{V}\) and then made to describe semicircular paths of radius \(\mathrm{r}\) using a magnetic field \(\mathrm{B}\). If \(\mathrm{V}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) are kept constant, the ratio [(Charge on the ion) / (mass of the ion)] will be proportional to. (a) \(\left(1 / r^{2}\right)\) (b) \(r^{2}\) (c) \(\mathrm{r}\) (d) \((1 / \mathrm{r})\)
