Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
D
Demagnetization of magnets can occur through several methods:
  • Rough handling: Physical shock or rough handling can cause misalignment of the magnetic domains, resulting in a loss of magnetism.
  • Heating: Heating a magnet beyond its Curie temperature can cause the magnetic domains to become disordered, thereby demagnetizing it.
  • Magnetising in the opposite direction: Applying a magnetic field in the opposite direction can effectively cancel out the existing magnetization, leading to demagnetization.
All these methods contribute to the demagnetization process, so the correct answer is D: All the above.
