👉 The term "polarizes" in physics refers to a phenomenon where an electric field or magnetic field is directed towards a point, causing another field (electric or magnetic) to be directed away from that point. This effect can occur when a charged particle collides with an external field and the resulting interaction causes it to move in a specific direction. For example, in electromagnetism, if a charged particle, such as an electron, enters a region of electric field due to another charged particle (
