Copyright is a legal right. For example if you copy a film and post it on the internet you will be breaching copyright law because you did not create that film and you do not have the owner's permission.
An example of plagiarism is going on the internet and copying and pasting a document and submitting it as your own coursework.
Below is a video I found on youtube that breaks down copyright law.
Copyright is using someone else's work without their permission.
Plagiarism is passing someone else's work off as your own
Well done for taking the trouble to find that out. However, bear in mind that it relates to USA, not UK copyright law.
