A diamagnetic rod in a non-uniform field tends to move
Atowards stronger field
Bin tight circles
Calong the field lines
Dtowards weaker field
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. towards weaker field
Diamagnetic bodies develop a moment opposite to the field and are pushed from high field to low field.
