Question

Try It: Electricity and Magnetism

What causes an object to become magnetized? (Select ALL that apply)
domains all line up
domains are randomized
proton movement
electron movement

Answer 1

The correct options are:

Domains all line up
Domains are randomized
Electron movement

When a material is magnetized, its domains become aligned in the same direction, which creates a magnetic field. If the domains are randomized, there is no net magnetic field. The alignment of domains can be affected by external magnetic fields, heating, or other factors. Electrons play a crucial role in magnetism because their movement generates magnetic fields. Proton movement does not contribute significantly to magnetism.
