← ScienceWhich consequence emerges when pulsed electromagnetic interference disables spin alignment within a ferromagnetic data tape?
A)Data loss via magnetic erasure✓
B)Tape head demagnetization
C)Increased motor torque required
D)Thermal runaway in write circuitry
💡 Explanation
Data loss occurs because the *exchange interaction* maintains spin alignment for data storage; because this interaction is disrupted, the magnetic domains randomize, therefore erasing data rather than permanently damaging recording heads, as the pulse's primary effect is magnetic disorder.
