The pencil with a paperclip with a piece of floss conected to it that tells you how many kids you have,does NOT work!!!
A pencil has more mass than a paperclip because it contains more material, such as the wood casing and graphite core, compared to the thin wire of a paperclip. The density of the materials used in a pencil is also higher than that of a paperclip, contributing to the difference in mass between the two objects.
To fix a jam in your Bic Velocity pencil, first try gently tapping the pencil against a hard surface to dislodge the lead. If that doesn't work, carefully use a small tool like a paperclip to remove the jammed lead from the tip of the pencil. Be sure to do this with caution to avoid damaging the pencil.
The idea is to draw a circle (two actually), using the ends of the paperclip to establish the radius of the circle, one pencil to anchor an end of the paperclip as the center of the circle, and a second pencil at the opposite end of the paperclip to draw the circle. Step by step, with the following diagram of characters, where the 'x' shows the place of the pencil that does not move, as the center of the circle, 'y' shows the place of the second pencil that moves to draw the small circle, and 'z' shows the place of the second pencil that moves to large small circle: (x______y)__z) # Place the paperclip on a piece of paper; # Put the first pencil inside the end of the paperclip that has just one loop ('x' above in the diagram). This pencil stays put, and is the center of the circle; # Put the second pencil inside either of the loops at the other end of the paperclip. Move this second pencil to draw a circle.
The metal thing on the end of the pencil is called a Ferrule!
In 1899, a Norwegian inventor named Johan Vaaler invented a beautiful thing! the Paperclip!! Now, thanks to Johan, the paperclip is a world wide item that comes in different colors and shapes! Thank You Johan Vaaler!!
To unjam a mechanical pencil, gently remove the lead and check for any obstructions in the tip. Use a small tool like a paperclip to clear any blockages. If the jam persists, try twisting the tip or tapping the pencil on a hard surface to dislodge the jammed lead.
Examples of items that weigh around 1 gram include a paperclip, a pencil eraser, or a small staple.
If it was a living thing when you use your pencil it would cry and scream that you are hurting it. I can’t imagine what it would do in a pencil sharpener as a living thing.
a twig, a pencil and me.

A pencil.
Six millimeters is roughly the size of the tip of a pencil eraser or the width of a standard paperclip. It is a small measurement, about the width of a grain of rice.
