MCQ
An example of a perfect diamagnet is a superconductor. This implies that when a superconductor is put in a magnetic field of intensity $B$, the magnetic field $B_s$ inside the superconductor will be such that
  • A
    $B_s\, =-B$
  • $B_s\, =0$
  • C
    $B_s\, = B$
  • D
    $B_s\, < B$ but $B_s \ne 0$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$B_s\, =0$
b
Magnetic field inside the superconductor is zero . Diamagnetic substances are repelled in external magnetic field
