MAGNETIC INDUCTION

Stuff you need

  1. Magnet
  2. Several paper clips

How to do

  1. Hang one paperclip from the magnet.
  2. Use the hanging clip to pick up other paper clips.

Result

  1. See how many paper clips you can pick up using only one magnet.

Why

  1. The magnet's lines of force are transmitted through the first paperclip to the second one by induction.

Extra stuff to do

  1. Use different sizes of paper clips
  2. Try paper clips that have plastic coating
