Get a magnettized object such as a magnet and rub it or get it near the unmagnetized object
Then after awhile, the unmagnetized object will slighty.. SLIGHTY become magnetized and its domains will start to arrange themselves. After awhile though, they will begin to unmagnetize again.

What are tiny regions inside all objects that cause an object to be magnetic when they line up?
Magnetic Fields
What does an object need to be attracted to a magnet?
It needs to be made of a magnetic material, such as iron.Such materials are magnetic because they form magnetic domains, in which atoms align with one another (with respect to their axis of rotation).
How are atoms arranged in an iron?
The atoms in an iron are arranged in way were they are not able to slide, there are bigger and smaller atoms. This makes the iron hard.
Why does heating a magnet decrease its magnetic field?
answ2. There is a characteristic named Curie Point. This is the temperature at which an object loses its magnetism. A permanent magnet, or an electromagnet, are magnetic because all the magnetic domains (co-spin regions) are aligned in the same direction.As you heat the magnet, the molecular bonds are the place the extra energy is absorbed, eventually resulting in the bonds becoming more and more randomized.A1. It will melt the magnetic feild around it.
What is an object that is surrounded by a magnetic field and can attract magnetic objects?
The magnet.
What would happen if a strong magnet passed an object with magnetic domains arranged randomly?
most of the domains line up so that the north pole of the object is attracted to the south pole of the magnet.
How are domains arranged in a magnetic object?
Without magnetic domains a magnet wouldn't have its magnetism. Magnetic domains are clusters of iron atoms that line up in the smae direction when magnetised. When unmagnitized the iron atoms scatter.
How can magnetism be induced in non magnetic iron?
In a magnetic material that is not a magnet, magnetic domains are arranged in random fashion canceling the net magnetic field. If such a material, like an iron rod, is exposed to a strong magnetic field, the domains will arrange themselves in the direction of the applied field and hence object will become magnetized.
How would you describe magnetic domains?
Each magnetic domain has a magnetic field. When an external magnetic field is applied, the magnetic domains will partially align, so the magnetic fields reinforce one another - instead of canceling one another, which is what happens when they are randomly distributed.
Why are some objects magnetic and others are not?
It all depends on the way in which the iron's 'domains' are aligned. Iron is inherently magnetic as a material, but can become demagnetized as time goes on, due to sudden impact or when affected by another magnetic source. For iron to become magnetized 'domains' need to be in parallel with each other so the magnetic field created all flows in the same direction. An unmagnetized iron source has all of its domains misaligned A brief explanation of domains are a series of positive and negative charged atomic particles within the iron itself which behaves much like tiny magnets themselves.
What are tiny regions inside all objects that cause an object to be magnetic when they line up?
Magnetic Fields
What happens to the electrons in materials that are turned into magnets?
When a magnet becomes demagnetized whats really happening is the arrangement of the domains is getting out of particular arrangement. When electrons are randomly arranged they cancel each others field and overall effect is zero. When a stronger magnetic field is applied to the object, its magnetic effect can be restored.
In a magnetized object most of the domains point?
To Earth's Magnetic Pole in the Northern Hemisphere

What is it in magnets that causes it to attract metal?
Magnets can retain a permanent magnetic field. All atoms have a magnetic field which are randomly arranged in the object. Magnets and ferrous metals can retain or temporarily align the atomic fields, thus they are magnetic.
What is magnetic object?
a magnetic object are those affected by magnetic field and are attracted to it.
