magnetization by rubbing
Explanation:

Explanation:
also.

Example sentence(s):
  • first compasses in Europe consisted of a water bowl and a swimming straw, on which a needle lay, which had been magnetized by friction with a magnetite.
  • The head nozzle may be magnetized by friction with electronic components through repetitive operations.
