Which of the following is a difference between temporary and permanent magnets?
Explanation
All three statements are true. Temporary magnets use soft magnetic materials like soft iron, and permanent magnets use hard materials like steel.
Temporary magnets lose their magnetism when the field is removed. Permanent ones keep it for a long time. Temporary magnets are also generally weaker. So the answer is all of the above.
