A region of a ferromagnet with all atomic moments aligned the same way is a

  1. domain
  2. lattice
  3. polaron
  4. phase front
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. domain

Such a uniformly aligned region is called a magnetic domain.

The temperature above which a ferromagnet behaves as a paramagnet is its

  1. boiling point
  2. Debye point
  3. Curie temperature
  4. critical point
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Curie temperature

Above the Curie temperature the domain structure collapses and the material turns paramagnetic.

On heating a ferromagnet, its domain structure distorts because exchange coupling

  1. strengthens
  2. weakens a lot
  3. reverses sign
  4. stays unchanged
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. weakens a lot

Higher thermal motion weakens coupling between neighbouring moments until domains collapse.
