The relative permiability of a diamagnet...

The relative permiability of a diamagnetic substance is ........ .. .

A

(A) very large

B

(B) small but greater than 1

C

(C) less then 1

D

(D) negative

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Relative permiability `mu_(r) = (mu)/( mu_0) = 1 + 1 chi_(m)`
For a diamagnetic substance `chi_(m)` is negative, so `mu_(r)` will be less than 1.
