Question

Which actions most likely cause the domains in a ferromagnetic material to align? Check all that apply. heating the material rubbing the material against a magnet passing electricity around the material placing the material in a magnetic field of opposite polarity placing the material near a strong magnet hitting the material

Answer 1

Answer:

i. rubbing the material against a magnet

ii. placing the material in a magnetic field of opposite polarity

iii. placing the material near a strong magnet

Explanation:

Ferromagnetic materials are majorly metals which can be easily attracted by a magnet. ferromagnetic materials are made up of domains, behaves as minute pieces of magnet. They can be rearranged to align when under the influence of an external magnetic field.

The alignment of the domains in a ferromagnetic material can be caused by either of the following: rubbing the material against a magnet, placing the material in a magnetic field of opposite polarity, placing the material near a strong magnet.
