The paper clip is usually metallic - and will most likely contain iron.
magnets can only attract metals with iron, nickel, or cobalt in it, and a pencil has none of these elements
Objects that are attracted to a magnet, such as iron, nickel, and cobalt, possess magnetic properties within their atomic structure. These materials have unpaired electrons that align with the magnetic field created by the magnet, causing them to be attracted to each other. Other materials, like wood, plastic, and glass, do not possess these magnetic properties and are not affected by a magnet.
With a magnet. Iron scraps will be attracted to a magnet, while matchsticks will not. Alternate answer; drop them in a pan of water. If the matchsticks are wood, they'll float, while the iron scraps will sink.
It has to do with friction. The smooth paper allows the pen or pencil to slide while rougher paper doesn't.
The number of sheets a magnet can pull through will vary depending on the strength of the magnet. Generally, a typical refrigerator magnet can pull through a few sheets of paper, while a more powerful neodymium magnet could potentially pull through a thicker stack of papers.
To write with a pencil, hold it between your fingers with a comfortable grip. Apply gentle pressure while moving the pencil across paper to create letters and shapes. Sharpen the pencil as needed to maintain a fine tip for clear writing.
Magnetic substances are those that are attracted to a magnet while non-magnetic substances are not attracted to a magnet.

get a magnet that attracts iron
No. Only a pencil and paper.

Cobalt and nickel are also magnetic elements.
It's like writing a term paper. Pencil is the rough-draft to be edited, while the final draft is in pen.
That depends on which pole of the magnet it is moved close to. If it is brought close to the "South" pole of the magnet, the "North" pointer of the compass will be attracted to the magnet. If it is brought close to the "North" pole of the magnet, the "North" pointer of the compass will be repelled and will point AWAY from the magnet, while the "South" end of the compass pointer will point to the magnet.
You can move a magnet back and forth right above the mixture. The iron filings will get attracted to the magnet and stick to it while the sand will remain in the container. Iron is a magnetic material while sand is not.
If you mean, are dimes attracted to a magnet, the answers are No for US dimes and Yes for Canadian dimes.American dimes are made of copper and a small amount of nickel. While the metal nickel is in fact attracted to a magnet there's not enough (only about 8.3%) in an American dime to show any attraction.Canadian dimes were made of pure nickel up till the end of the 1990s, and have been made of steel since then. Both of these metals are strongly attracted to a magnet.
No, magnets have a north and south pole. The north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet, while like poles repel each other.
