Quinck's Tube Method is designed to study of susceptibility of paramegnetic solution. The force acts on any substance when it is placed in a inhomogeneous magnetic field. This force depends on the susceptibility c of the material, i.e. on ratio of intensity of magnetisation to magnetising field (I/H). Quantitatively it refers to the extent of induced magnetisation in unit field. The force acting on a substance, either of repulsion or attraction, can be measured of rise in level in a narrow capillary in case of liquids. From this measurement, the value of susceptibility can be calculated.
