Well this is a simple one to explain. A permanent magnet is a magnet that can not be terminated or "switched off". whilst a temporary magnet can. So i ask you can an electromagnet be turned off. The answer is yes it can though it will have a residual magnetic field for a short period due to residual energy within. I hope this helps I must say that I'm surprised that a teacher did not tell you this during your school life unless you have not reached that part of your school life or you were absent or weren't listening. Nun the less I hope this helps you.

What is a temporary magnet called?
electromagnet
What type of magnet is temporary?
Electromagnet. Magnetic only when current is flowing in the coil.
Is a electromagnet a temporary magnet yes or no?
Yes
Why is an electromagnet considered to be a temporary magnet?
An electromagnet acts as a magnet only while electricity is passing through the coil. Once the electricity is turned off, the electromagnet ceases being a magnet. Electromagnets are much used in scrapyards. Attached to a crane, metal is picked up and deposited into railway wagons, or road haulage vehicles, to be sent for recycling.

Strong temporary magnet formed when a current is passed through a coil of wire?
A magnetic field.
Electromagnet is a temporary magnet because you can?
turn it off by unplugging the current source.
How is a electromagnet diffrent then a permanent magnet?
By definition an electromagnet is only working when it has a supply of electricity, a Permanent Magnet is always a magnet
