Answer (2)

The type of magnetism involved when you can turn a magnet on and off is called electromagnetism . This occurs when an electric current flows through a wire, creating a magnetic field. Other types of magnetism, like permanent and induced magnetism, do not involve a switchable current. ;

The type of magnetism that can be turned on and off is known as electromagnetism , which is created by electric current flowing through a wire. When the current is turned on, it generates a magnetic field, and when it's turned off, the magnetism disappears. Thus, the chosen answer is C. Electromagnetism .
