Question

How are electromagnets temporary?

A.) They are only magnetic when an electric current runs through them.
B.) They are only magnetic when a gravitational wave runs through them.
C.) They are only magnetic when near a lodestone.
D.) They are only magnetic for two weeks.

Answer 1

The answer (to this question) is A

Answer 2

Such magnets are called temporary magnets. An electromagnet is a temporary magnet. It is made by winding a coil of insulated wire round a soft iron core. When a current is passed through the coil, the magnetic field produced by the current magnetises the soft iron core. The soft iron core loses all the magnetism when the current is switched off.

So A
