The document describes an experiment to determine if larger magnets have stronger magnetic force than smaller magnets. Various sized magnets were positioned at increasing distances above paper clips. The number of paper clips attracted to each magnet was recorded. At 1 inch, the large magnet attracted the most paper clips and the extra small magnet the least. This trend continued at 2 inches, although fewer clips were attracted. At 3 inches, only the large magnet attracted clips. It was concluded that big magnets have stronger magnetic force than smaller magnets.
12. Lay the paper clips on a table.
Position the extra small magnet 1 inch
above the area where the paper clips
lay.
Measure the number of the paper clips
that were attracted by the magnet.
Repeat the same procedure with the
other magnets.
Compare the number of paper clips
attracted by the different magnets.
13. Lay the magnets again.
Position the magnet 2 inches above the
area where the paper clips lay.
Repeat steps number 3-5.
Lay the magnets again.
Position the magnet higher again.
Position the magnet 3 inches above the
area where the paper clips lay.
Repeat steps number 3-5.
14. 1 inch Above the ground
Extra Small Magnet -5 below paper clips
attract on the magnet
Small Magnet -20 paper clips attract
on the magnet
Medium Magnet -30 paper clips attract
on the magnet
Large Magnet -70 paper clips attract
on the magnet
15. 2 Inches above ground
Extra Small Magnet -(there is no movement of
the paper clips or
attraction)
Small Magnet -(there is/are movement of
the paper clips but no
attraction)
Medium Magnet -15 paper clips attract on
the magnet
Large Magnet -40 paper clips attract on
the magnet
16. 3 inches above ground
Extra Small Magnet -(there is no movement of
the paper clips or
attraction)
Small Magnet -(there is no movement of
the paper clips or
attraction)
Medium Magnet -(there is/are movement of
the paper clips but no
attraction)
Large Magnet -15 paper clips attract on
the magnet
17. Therefore, big magnets have stronger
magnetic force than smaller magnets.
