Question

What happens to electrons in an iron object when the object is magnetized? Magnetizing an object causes its electrons to split up so that their motions are all in different directions Magnetizing an object causes its electrons to scatter so that their motions are random. Magnetizing an object causes its electrons to line up so that their motions are all in the same direction​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Magnetization causes the electrons to line up. The things that line up are the "spins" that they inherently have. When an object is magnetized, the magnetic dipoles of the electrons try their best to align with the external magnetic field. The reason they align is because each and every dipole experiences a torque from the magnetic force acting on the electrons. Torque is the same force that is used to rotate a door around an axis.
