MHT CET 2026 Physics question
Not in JEE Advanced syllabus
A diamagnetic liquid is filled in a U-tube. One arm of a U-tube is placed in an external magnetic field with the meniscus in line with the field. The level of the liquid in that arm will
Answer: (B)
Solution
A diamagnetic substance acquires a magnetisation opposite to the applied field and is weakly repelled, i.e. it tends to move from the region of stronger field to the region of weaker field. The liquid surface in the arm placed in the field lies in the strong-field region, so the liquid is pushed away from it and the
