∙ 10y ago
DIFFERENCE:
a bar magnet is a permanent magnet where as solenoid is a electromagnet so it acts as a magnet only when electricity is passed through it.
SIMILARITIES:
they both act as magnets and both have a similar magnetic field.

How a solenoid may be used to demagnatise a bar magnet?
Heating a bar magnet with solenoid demagnatise it.
How is a solenoid similar to a magnet?
A solenoid acts like a magnet when an electrical current is sent through the coil. A permanent magnet is magnetic all the time. Therefore, they are similar when both act like a magnet, but not when the solenoid is turned off.

What does solenoid do?
work as the current carrying coil-of wire on and acts like magnet when conductor flows

What are the differences between natural magnets and artificial magnets?
magnet which we get naturally from earth is called natural magnet e.g: lodestone.. while magnet made from magnetic material is called artificial magnet ...
What shape of a permanent magnet corresponds to the magnetic field formed by a solenoid?

Where you get magnet?
To get a magnet.Magnets are available in nature.You can make a magnet by tying a piece of iron to a strong magnet for some time.You can also get a magnet by making an Electo-magnet or solenoid.

How does a solenoid act as a magnet?
When current is passed through a solenoid coil, magnetic field produced due to each turn of solenoid coil is in the same direction. As a result the resultant magnetic field is very strong and uniform. The field lines inside the solenoid are in the form of parallel straight lines along the axis of solenoid. Thus, the solenoid behaves like a bar magnet.
How is earth's magnetic field similar to that of a magnet?
electric current in a solenoid coil
