the most important cause of magnetism in magnetic materials

A group of aligned atoms having a single magnetic field

theory that says an object will not possess a single, overall magnetic field unless most of the domains are lined up in the same direction

substances with no unpaired electrons

material weakly attracted to a magnet is said to be

magnet made from a magnetically soft material is called a

Materials whose domains strongly resist changes in the direction of their magnetic fields are

magnets made from magnetically hard materials are called

the three ways of magnetizing

a device that produces a strong magnetic field when electricity passes through it

The magnetically soft material placed within the coils of an electromagnet in order to strengthen its field is the electromagnet’s

The temperature at which a ferromagnetic material’s do-mains disappear is its

The resistance of a magnet to being demagnetized by a magnetic field is the material’s

The force existing in a magnetic field that causes a moving electric charge to deviate from its original path is called the
