Explanation

**Diamagnetism** exhibits small negative susceptibility χ ≈ -10⁻⁵ to -10⁻⁶, weakly repelled from stronger to weaker field regions, no permanent moment, induced moment opposite to B, present in all materials but dominated by other effects. Superconductor perfect diamagnet with χ = -1, complete field expulsion. Gauss’s law for magnetism states that the net magnetic flux through any closed surface is zero, even for a toroid, as magnetic field lines form closed loops. Substituting values gives Zero, which matches expected magnitude for this magnetic configuration, confirming dipole field dependence on m/r³ and torque relation τ = m B sinθ.
