A solid iron cylinder is placed in a region containing a uniform magnetic field such that the cylinder axis is parallel to the magnetic field direction. The magnetic field lines inside the cylinder will (a) bend closer to the cylinder axis (b) bend farther away from the axis (c) remain uniform as before (d) cease to exist inside the cylinder 9. Ans: (c) Sol: Iron is a ferrormagnetic material. In such a material, there will be magnetic dipoles associated with the spins of unpaired electrons, just like in a paramagnetic material. In the absence of any external magnetic field: In a paramagnetic material these dipoles are oriented in all possible directions, and so their dipole moments are cancelled out, and the material as a whole is non-magnetic. In a ferromagnetic material, all the dipoles point in only one direction. (This can be explained using quantum mechanics). But in that case, every nail, every piece of iron, must be a powerful permanent magnet; why is it not so? The alignment occurs in small patches, called domains. Each domain has several billions of dipoles, all pointing in one direction; but in any small piece of iron, there are billions of such domains, dipoles of each domain oriented randomly in some direction. The net magnetization of all these dipoles is zero. When an external magnetic field B ext is applied, domains with the same direction as B ext grow, others shrink; the material is magnetized in the direction of B ext. So when a solid iron cylinder is placed in a uniform B ext with the axis of the cylinder along the direction of B ext, the field lines in the cylinder remain parallel and uniform as before, but their density increases.
