Question
A ferromagnetic substance becomes a permanent magnet when it is placed in a magnetic field becuase ______.
Options
all the domains get oriented in the direction of magnetic field.
all the domains get oriented in the direction opposite to the direction of magnetic field.
domains get oriented randomly.
domains are not affected by magnetic field.
Solution
A ferromagnetic substance becomes a permanent magnet when it is placed in a magnetic field becuase all the domains get oriented in the direction of magnetic field.
Explanation:
Ferromagnetic solids can be permanently magnetised and then all the domains get oriented in the direction of applied magnetic field.
