Questions and Answers

What is the magnetising behavior of type-I superconductors?

  • They expel all the magnetic field abruptly and become ideal diamagnetic material (correct)
  • They allow magnetic flux lines to penetrate completely inside the material
  • They exhibit no change in magnetisation with an applied external magnetic field
  • They gradually lose magnetisation rather than abruptly

What happens to the magnetisation of type-I superconductors at the critical magnetising field?

  • It decreases abruptly and the material becomes normal (correct)
  • It reverses direction and becomes paramagnetic
  • It increases abruptly and the material becomes superconducting
  • It remains constant and the material stays superconducting
