and V is the potential difference between the ends of the resistance R.
b) i) Curie temperature: The temperature above which a ferromagnetic substance becomes paramagnetic substance is called the curie temperature of the substance. Te curie temperature of the iron is 770o C. It follows that at a temperature below 770o C, the iron is ferromagnetic and at a temperature above 770o C, the iron is paramagnetic.
