Best Answer

A magnet can be demagnetized by striking it many times, heating it, or cooling it. All of these randomize the domains.

by heating it, dropping it or generally being rough with it. those conditions cause the atoms in the domains to go in random directions and as this happens the magnet gets weaker and weaker

How can magnetism be destroyed?

Magnetism is a fundamental force of nature that cannot be destroyed. However, materials that are magnetized can lose their magnetism if exposed to extreme heat or a strong magnetic field in the opposite direction, causing the magnetic domains within the material to become disordered.
