Materials that, when exposed to an external magnetic field, non-magnetic atoms acquire temporary magnetic moments that tend to oppose the external field?
Diamagnetic
Material that, an external magnetic field causes randomly oriented magnetic atoms to align temporarily in the same direction as the field.
Paramagnetic
Material that is weakly attracted to an external magnetic field but cannot be magnetized permanently.
