What is permanent magnet ?

Dear Student,

A permanent magnet is an object made from a material that is magnetized and creates its own persistent magnetic field. As the name suggests, a permanent magnet is 'permanent'. This means that it always has a magnetic field and will display a magnetic behavior at all times.

It is in brief hope you like it
Permanent magnets are materials where the magnetic field is generated by the internal structure of the material itself. Inside atoms and crystals, you have both electrons and the nucleus of the atom. Both the nucleus and the electrons themselves act like little magnets, like little spinning chunks of electric charge, and they have magnetic fields inherent in the particles themselves.
