Electro magnets differs from permanent magnet because it requires electricity. A simple electro magnet consists of an iron rod wrapped in a coil of copper and when electricity flows through the copper, a magnetic field is formed.
Electro magnets can be used to attract metals temperarily while permanent magnet would be used for compasses.
?? lol i dont know what electro magnets u have been using! if it is a homemade electro magnet, try increasing the coils in the wire ro the power u are putting into it. does the bar magnet (permanent magnet) have a larger surface area than the electro one? also, you do know that the magnetic potential of electro and permanent magnets vary right? they use electro magnets in junk yards that are capable of lifting scrap cars with eaaase
Core
Electromagnets use electricity to create a magnetic field, which can be turned on and off. They are typically stronger than permanent magnets. In contrast, permanent magnets, like those made of iron or nickel, are always magnetic without the need for an external power source.
An electromagnet is a magnet while an electric current is running through the coil. Turn off the current and it is no longer magnetised, and is, therefore, not a permanent magnet.
An electro-magnet would be the strongest magnet. Or the sun itself would be the strongest natural magnet.

An electro magnet proves that Electricity and Magnetism always co-exist in nature
An electro-magnet can be switched on & off - a bar magnet is 'permanent' Think of a scrap-yard. If the magnet they use to pick up huge quantities of metal were permanent, they'd have to manually remove every piece. With an electro-magnet, they simply turn the power on to pick up a load, and off when they want to release it. You can make your own electro-magnet with a battery, some wire and a large nail.

A electro magnet is used for lifting things by the magnetic force provided by the amount of coils and the size of the battery
