MHT CET 2025 Physics question

Not in JEE Advanced syllabus

Magnetic hysteresis is exhibited by magnetic materials which are

(A)only paramagnetic
(B)only diamagnetic
(C)only ferromagneticCorrect
(D)both para and ferromagnetic

Answer: (C)

Solution

Hysteresis (lagging of magnetisation behind the magnetising field , giving a closed - loop) arises because ferromagnetic materials have domains that stay partly aligned after the field is removed (retentivity and coercivity). Paramagnetic
