| Types of Magnets |
|
| There are two major types of magnets: Permanent magnets and Temporary magnets. Permanent magnets retain their magnetism over a long period of time whereas temporary magnets retain their magnetic properties only under certain conditions like presence of a strong magnet or an electric current in the vicinity. |
| |
| Magnets are available in different shapes as well. For example, bar magnets, horse-shoe magnets, magnetic needles, ring magnets, disc magnets etc. |
| |
| In industries, another major type of
magnet called ceramic magnet is in great demand. The following diagram shows
