The induced magnetic moment is very small in most everyday materials. All materials show a diamagnetic response in an applied magnetic field; however for materials which show some other form of magnetism (such as ferromagnetism or paramagnetism), the diamagnetism is completely swamped.erromagnets are attracted to field maxima, which do not exist in free space. Diamagnetism is an induced form of magnetism, thus the magnetic moment is proportional to the applied field B. This means that the magnetic energy of diamagnets is proportional to B 2, the intensity of the magnetic field.
Asbestos is one of the greatest public health threats of our time. Asbestos is a carcinogen that has been used for thousands of years and killed untold numbers of people. The Greeks, Egyptians and Romans all used asbestos in one form or another, and that use continues to this day.
Environmental asbestos exposure. Environmental asbestos exposure is any indirect exposure, caused either by environmental pollution or by naturally occurring asbestos. Naturally occurring asbestos deposits have been found throughout the country, particularly in parts of California and Montana.
