Solution
A ferromagnetic substance becomes a permanent magnet when it is placed in a magnetic field becuase all the domains get oriented in the direction of magnetic field.
Explanation:
Ferromagnetic solids can be permanently magnetised and then all the domains get oriented in the direction of applied magnetic field.
