Is a needle in a compass a permanent magnet?
Yes, it is a permanent magnet.
Objects that keep their magnetic properties for a long time?
A permanent magnet (in contrast to an electromagnet).
What might happen if you drop a permanent magnet or strike it hard?
A permanent magnet may become unmagnetized because a shock it will have.
What is a lifting magnet?
A lifting magnet is an electromagnet that is meant to hold or move material that comes in contact with the magnet. This is the opposite of a traction magnet.
What is a non permanent magnet?
An electromagnet (a coil around a soft iron core) will only be magnetic when current changes in the coil and so is not permanent.
What uses are there for a permanent magnet?
The permanent magnet always retains its magnetism so even the smallest temporary magnets will stick to it. its uses will include keeping the refrigerator door sealed nice and tight as well as the actual door being a permanent magnet so pictures and notes to the kids can be hung on it.

PermanentThere is no source of current in a compass, therefore the magnet is a permanent magnet.
How can a magnet be temporarily magnetized when attached to a permanent magnet?
When a magnet is attached to a permanent magnet, it can become temporarily magnetized by aligning its magnetic domains with the strong magnetic field of the permanent magnet. This alignment causes the magnet to exhibit magnetic properties for a short period of time.
Is a permanent magnet called a hard magnet or a electromagnet?
Perminant magnet
Is the magnet in a compass a permanent or electromagnet?
The magnet in a compass is a permanent magnet. It retains its magnetism without the need for an external electrical current.
