In what way is the behaviour of a diamagnetic material different from that of a paramagnetic material, when kept in an external magnetic field?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In a diamagnetic material, the magnetic field lines of external field avoid to enter, whereas in a paramagnetic material, the magnetic field lines tend to pass through it.
