The document discusses three types of magnetic materials:
Diamagnetic materials are weakly repelled by magnetic fields and do not retain magnetic properties when the external field is removed. Their electrons are paired, resulting in no net magnetic moment.
Paramagnetic materials are slightly attracted to magnetic fields but also do not retain magnetism after removal of the external field. They have some unpaired electrons and domains align when exposed to an external field.
Ferromagnetic materials strongly attract magnetic fields and can retain magnetism after the field is removed. They have many unpaired electrons within aligned magnetic domains, giving them a strong net magnetic moment even without an external field.

Diamagnetic
materials have a weak, negative susceptibility to magnetic fields.
Diamagnetic materials are slightly repelled by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed. In diamagnetic materials all the electron are paired so there is no permanent net magnetic moment per atom. Diamagnetic properties arise from the realignment of the electron paths under the influence of an external magnetic field. Most elements in the periodic table, including copper, silver, and gold, are diamagnetic.
Paramagnetic materials have a small, positive susceptibility to magnetic fields. These
materials are slightly attracted by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed. Paramagnetic properties are due to the presence of some unpaired electrons, and from the realignment of the electron paths caused by the external magnetic field. Paramagnetic materials include magnesium, molybdenum, lithium, and tantalum.
Ferromagnetic materials have a large, positive susceptibility to an external magnetic
field. They exhibit a strong attraction to magnetic fields and are able to retain their magnetic properties after the external field has been removed. Ferromagnetic materials have some unpaired electrons so their atoms have a net magnetic moment. They get their strong magnetic properties due to the presence of magnetic domains. In these domains, large numbers of atom's moments (1012 to 1015) are aligned parallel so that the magnetic force within the domain is strong. When a ferromagnetic material is in the unmagnitized state, the domains are nearly randomly organized and the net magnetic field for the part as a whole is zero. When a magnetizing force is applied, the domains become aligned to produce a strong magnetic field within the part. Iron, nickel, and cobalt are examples of ferromagnetic materials. Components with these materials are commonly inspected using the magnetic particle method.
Lenz’s Law:There is an induced current in a closed conducting loop if and only if
the magnetic flux through the loop is changing. The direction of the induced current is such that the induced magnetic field always opposes the change in the flux.///////// "An induced electromotive force generates a current that induces a counter magnetic field that opposes the magnetic field generating the current." What is radioactivity?
Radioactivity is the property of some atoms that causes them to
spontaneously give off energy as particles or rays. Radioactive atoms emit ionizing radiation when they decay.
Unstable atomic nuclei will spontaneously decompose to form nuclei with a higher stability. The decomposition process is called radioactivity.
Nuclear binding energy is the amount of energy required to hold an atom's
protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.
The photoelectric effect refers to the emission, or ejection, of electrons from
the surface of, generally, a metal in response to incident light.
