Solution

The correct option is A True
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. Electromagnets usually consist of wire wound into a coil around an iron core.A current through the wire creates a magnetism inside the iron core.And it is a temporary magnet because when current is turned off the magnetism disappears.Then it is no longer a magnet.
