← ScienceWhich phenomenon results when certain metals transition to superconducting states?
A)Meissner effect excludes magnetic flux✓
B)Increased thermal expansion coefficient value
C)Substantial reduction in electrical resistance
D)Spontaneous generation induced polarization
💡 Explanation
The Meissner effect, the expulsion of magnetic fields, occurs due to perfect diamagnetism from Cooper pairs forming according to BCS theory. Because magnetic flux is excluded during the transition to superconducting state, therefore the Meissner effect occurs, rather than resistance.
