Question
what happens when the atoms in a magnetic material are lined up?
the arrangement of the atoms does not affect the magnetism of the material.
it is not magnetic.
it is magnetic.
In magnetic materials, when atoms (or more precisely, the magnetic domains which are groups of atoms with aligned magnetic moments) are lined up (aligned in the same direction), their individual magnetic effects add up. This alignment creates a net magnetic field, making the material magnetic. If the atoms (domains) were randomly oriented, their magnetic effects would cancel out (like in non - magnetic or demagnetized materials).
