Physics - Magnetism Question with Solution | TestHub

Statement-1 is false. Diamagnetic substances are indeed weakly repelled by a magnetic field, but their magnetic susceptibility ($\chi$) is small and negative, typically in the range $-10^{-5}$ to $-10^{-6}$.

Statement-2 is true. Paramagnetic substances are weakly attracted by a magnetic field, and their magnetic susceptibility ($\chi$) is small and positive, typically in the range $10^{-3}$ to $10^{-5}$.
