Question

Electromagnet is a _________ magnet.

Answer 1

1. An electromagnet is a temporary magnet.
2. An electromagnet behaves like a bar magnet.
3. When an electric current is allowed to pass through it, one end behaves like a north pole and the other end like a south pole.
4. Polarity of the ends depends on the direction of the current.
5. As the current gets off, magnetism disappears.

Hence, the electromagnet is the temporary magnet.
