Curie-Weiss Law
The Curie-Weiss Law describes how certain materials, known as ferromagnets, behave when exposed to a magnetic field. It states that the susceptibility (a measure of how much a material becomes magnetic) is directly proportional to the temperature above a certain threshold. This means as you heat these materials, they become less magnetically responsive. Below this threshold, the material can become strongly magnetized. Essentially, the law helps us understand how temperature influences magnetism in materials, showing a clear relationship between the two.
