1.

A coil is suspended in a uniform magnetic field, with the plane of the coil parallel to the magnetic lines of force. When a current is passed through the coil it starts oscillating; it is very difficult to stop. But if an aluminium plate is placed near to the coil, it stops. This is due to

  • development of air current when the plate is placed.

  • induction of electrical charge on the plate

  • shielding of magnetic lines of force as aluminium is a paramagnetic material.

  • shielding of magnetic lines of force as aluminium is a paramagnetic material.
