How do you make a temparary magnet with a magnet an iron nail and paper clips?

To create a temporary magnet using a magnet, an iron nail, and paper clips, simply rub the magnet along the nail in one direction several times. This process aligns the magnetic domains within the iron nail, temporarily magnetizing it. Once magnetized, the nail can pick up paper clips, demonstrating its newfound magnetic properties. The magnetism will fade over time, but the process can be repeated as needed.
