A frog can be levitated in a magnetic field produced by a current in a vertical solenoid placed below the frog. This is possible because the body of the frog behaves as

A

diamagnetic

B

paramagnetic

C

ferromagnetic

D

antiferromagnetic

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Diamagnetic substance are repelled by the magnetic field. The body of the frog behaves like a diamagnetic substance, hence the smallest magnetic field placed below the body of the frog will be strong enough to lift it.
