Q

How does a magnet work?

A

The molecules in a magnet are arranged so that their electrons spin in the same direction.

17
Q

Why are not all objects magnetic?

A

The electrons in most objects spin in random directions, and their magnetic forces cancel each other out.

18
Q

What is a domain ?

A

A domain is a region inside of a material where groups of magnetic moments naturally align in the same direction.
