Question:
Which of the following shows ferrimagnetism?
Which of the following shows ferrimagnetism?
Show Hint
Ferrimagnetism is typical of ferrites such as Fe$_3$O$_4$, where magnetic ions occupy different lattice sites and align in opposite directions, but with unequal moments.
Updated On: Jun 2, 2025
- TiO$_2$
- CrO$_2$
- MnO
- Fe$_3$O$_4$
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
- Ferrimagnetism is a type of magnetism observed in materials like Fe$_3$O$_4$ (magnetite), where the magnetic moments of the atoms on different sublattices are opposed, but unequal, resulting in a net magnetic moment.
- TiO$_2$, CrO$_2$, and MnO do not exhibit ferrimagnetism; CrO$_2$ is ferromagnetic, while MnO is antiferromagnetic.

- A particle of charge \( q \) is moving with a velocity \( \vec{v} \) at a distance \( d \) from a long straight wire carrying a current \( I \) as shown in the figure. At this instant, it is subjected to a uniform electric field \( \vec{E} \) such that the particle keeps moving undeviated. In terms of unit vectors \( \hat{i}, \hat{j}, \) and \( \hat{k} \), find:
the magnetic field \( \vec{B} \),
the magnetic force \( \vec{F}_m \), and
