How do you account for the following fact?
Soft iron keepers help to prevent the magnets from losing their magnetic properties.
उत्तर
In magnets, external fields like earth’s magnetic field can randomize the domains. Perhaps stray fields caused by flowing currents in nearby electric circuits can also disturb i the alignment of domains lying inside a magnet. Given enough time, such magnets may find their domains randomly oriented and hence their net magnetisation may get lost. A keeper for magnets is just a strong permanent magnet that keeps all the domains pointing the same way and realign those that may have gone astray and hence magnet, can retain its magnetism for a long time.
