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.
Experiment
ResultsI 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 learnedI learned that magnetism can move through something solid like a paperclip.
QuestionCan the magnet go through water?
ThinkingI dont think the magnet can work in water.
Experiment
ResultsThe magnet worked through the water to move my cup!
What I learnedI 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.
