Practice question

**Paramagnetism** has small positive χ ≈ 10⁻³ to 10⁻⁵, weakly attracted towards stronger field, random moments align partially with B, magnetization decreases with temperature following Curie law χ ∝ 1/T. Materials have unpaired electrons with permanent moments. Gauss’s law for magnetism states that the net magnetic flux through any closed surface is zero, as magnetic field lines form closed loops with no monopoles. 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.
