Question

Why are electromagnets considered as temporary magnets

Answer 1

Answer:

When the charge flows around the coil, magnetic flux, i.e. in simpler words magnetic lines of force are produced and when the charge stops flowing the flux will get zero and hence an electromagnet will act as temporary magnet.

Answer 2

Answer:

This is because the when the power of the battery stops, the electric current stops and the magnetic field vanishes thus it is called a temporary magnet.
