Temporary magnet:
Soft metals are used to create temporary magnets, which only become magnetic when subjected to an electric current or a permanent magnetic field. They get magnetized when they come into touch with a magnetic field. They eventually lose their magnetic properties when the magnetic field is removed. Paperclips, iron nails, and other things of a similar nature serve as temporary magnets.
