It can't be just any metal - it has to be iron. If you wrap a copper wire around iron, and the copper wire is attached to an electricity source, you can create an electromagnet.
To make a metal magnet, you can create a temporary magnet by stroking a metal material (like iron) with a permanent magnet in the same direction. This aligns the magnetic domains in the metal. For a more permanent magnet, you can heat the metal to a specific temperature and then cool it in the presence of a magnetic field to enhance its magnetic properties.
Some metals are naturally paramagnetic, meaing that you can induce a magnet field on it but only with a very strong magnet. To actually magnetize the metal itself without a magnet, you would have to make an induced magnet by wrapping the metal around a copper wire and sending electricity through it. It all has to do with the arrangement of the electrons within the metal.

It depends on the composition of the metal plate. Magnetic materials like iron or cobalt would make the metal plate magnetic and attract a magnet. However, non-magnetic metals like titanium or stainless steel would not attract a magnet.
When you rub a magnet with metal, the metal object becomes temporarily magnetized. This happens because the atoms in the metal align with the magnetic field of the magnet. However, once the magnet is removed, the metal object loses its magnetism.
Neodymium, alloyed with iron and boron.
A magnet is an object that attracts metal due to its magnetic field. When a metal object comes in close proximity to a magnet, it is pulled towards the magnet due to the attractive force between the magnetic poles.
The exact same way that a normal magnet attracts metal.
a magnet is a metal thingy that can pull a metal object towards it
You can make a temporary magnet by rubbing a piece of iron or steel with a permanent magnet. This aligns the domains in the material, creating a magnetic field. However, this magnetism will fade over time as the domains become disorganized again.
Metal?
yes
