Electromagnets are temporary magnets created by passing an electric current through a coil of wire, while permanent magnets are naturally occurring magnets that retain their magnetism without an external power source. Electromagnets can be turned on and off by controlling the electric current, while permanent magnets always have a magnetic field.
