Question

Which material has a large positive \( \chi \) and exhibits spontaneous domain alignment?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

**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. Ferromagnetic materials have a large positive chi and exhibit spontaneous alignment of magnetic moments into domains. Substituting values gives Ferromagnetic, which matches expected magnitude for this magnetic configuration, confirming dipole field dependence on m/r³ and torque relation τ = m B sinθ.
