A thin diamagnetic rod is placed vertically
between the poles of an electromagnet. When
the current in the electromagnet is switched
on, then the diamagnetic rod is pushed up, out
of the horizontal magnetic field. Hence the rod
gains gravitational potential energy. The work
required to do this comes from
- AThe current source
- BThe magnetic field
- CThe lattice structure of the material of the rod
- DThe induced electric field due to the changing magnetic field
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
Energy of current source will be converted into gravitational potential energy of the rod.
