Electrical resistance of certain materia...

Electrical resistance of certain materials, known as superconductors, changes abruptly from a nonzero value of zero as their temperature is lowered below a critical temperature `T_(C) (0)`. An interesting property of super conductors is that their critical temperature becomes smaller than `T_(C) (0)` if they are placed in a magnetic field, i.e., the critical temperature `T_(C) (B)` is a function of the magnetic field strength B. The dependence of `T_(C) (B)` on B is shown in the figure.
.
A superconductor has `T_(C) (0) = 100 K`. When a magnetic field of 7.5 Tesla is applied , its `T_(C)` decreases to 75 K. For this material one can difinitely say that when

A

`B=5T, T_C(B) =80 K`

B

`B=5T, 75 K lt T_C(B) lt 100K`

C

`B=10T, 75 K lt T_C(B) lt 100K`

D

`B=10T, T_C(B)=70 K`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b

If `0ltBlt7.5T`, then `75KltTc(B)lt100K`
