MCQ
Bell laboratory has developed superconductor at a temperature of:
  • A
    30K
  • B
    40K
  • C
    50K
  • D
    60K

Answer

  1. 40K

Explanation:

Bell laboratory has developed superconductor at a temperature of 40 K.Superconductivity is a phenomenon of exactly zero electrical resistance and expulsion of magnetic flux fields occurring in certain materials, called superconductors, when cooled below a characteristic critical temperature. It was discovered by Dutch physicist Heike Kamerlingh Onnes on April 8, 1911, in Leiden.
