Module 3. Electrical fundamentals

An example of a paramagnetic material is

  • silver.
  • iron.
  • glass.
  • aluminium.

Explanation

Aluminium is paramagnetic, meaning it is weakly attracted by a magnetic field because of its unpaired electrons. Iron is ferromagnetic (strongly attracted and able to retain magnetism), while silver and glass are diamagnetic and weakly repelled, so aluminium is the only paramagnetic example listed.

Glass is a diamagnetic, silver as well.
