What is the difference between permanent and tepoary magnets?

Answer 1

Temporary magnets are created using an electrical field. Once the current is switched off, it is no longer magnetic. A permanent magnet on the other hand, such as the common Ferro-ceramic magnet remains magnetic all the time because it was manufactured with all of its iron particles facing the same way.

Answer 2

Permanent magnets retain their magnetic properties over a long period of time without the need for an external magnetic field, while temporary magnets can be magnetized only when exposed to an external magnetic field. Permanent magnets are typically made from materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt, while temporary magnets are usually made from materials like soft iron or steel.
