My Magnet Experiments By Erica Kuehl
Question When I put a magnet on a paperclip does the paperclip turn into a magnet?
Thinking I think the paperclip might turn into a magnet.
Results • I thought the paperclip might turn into a magnet. I was wrong. The paperclips could only stick together when they were touching a permanent magnet. • The magnetism moved through each paperclip to make them stick together. They were only temporary magnets.
What I learned I learned that magnetism can move through something solid like a paperclip.
Question Can the magnet go through water?
Thinking I don’t think the magnet can work in water.
Results The magnet worked through the water to move my cup!
What I learned • I made a magnetic field in each of my experiments. • A magnetic field is the space around the magnet. • A magnetic field is very strong because it can move through solids like a paperclip and liquids like water.
