An electromagnet is a type of temporary magnet that is created by passing an electric current through a coil of wire wrapped around a magnetic core, such as iron or steel. The strength of an electromagnet can be adjusted by changing the amount of electric current flowing through the coil.

How is is an electromagnet different from a magnet?

an electromagnet is a type of magnet that is created by an electric current. the magnetism disappears when the current is removed. if you have a landline phone and the phone line runs right next to a power line and you hear a buzzing in the line, you're hearing electromagnetic interference a permanent magnet is a type of magnet that is created by aligning the molecules by pole. this type of magnet will not lose it's magnetism in our lifetime.
