A Study was done with an electromagnet system made from a battery and wire wrapped around a nail. Different sizes of nails were used the number of paper clips that the electromagnet could pick up?
i am pretty sure the size of nail doesn't matter.
If you have a a magnet stuck to the nail then a paper clip stuck to the nail then you take the magnet away and the nail in the paper clip are still together why did that happen?
this happens because the magnet has magnetised the nail
What will happen if a wire is wrapped around a nail a lot of times?
If the nail is iron and you pass an electric current through the wire then you have an electromagnet.
What is the difference between a weakly magnetised nail and a strongly magnetised nail?
The strong magnetised nail will pick up more paper clips than the weak magnetised nail.That is because the strong magnetised nail is getting more strength and that means that the weak magnetised nail is getting less strength.in a steel nail there are these things called domains, in a weakly magnetised nail some of them will be pointing north, south, east and west, but however in a strongly magnetised nail all the domains will point to north.
How do you flatten crumpled paper?
One thing you can do is use a shining side of a nail filer.
Why was the wire wrapped nail able to pick up the paper clips or sefety pins?
to transfer the energy passes from the wire so that the nail able to pick up the paper clips
When does the wire wrapped nail pick up paper clips?
When both positive and Negative charged wire ends touch it. (Try it, it's fun)

Can carbonated drinks dissolve paper clips?
IT can dissolve a paper clip, but it cant dissolve meat or a nail.
What materials do i need to make an electromagnet?
A nail, copper wire, paper clips, staples and power supply.
What is the difference between a weakly magnetised nail and a strongly magnetised nails?
A Weakly magnetised nail will pick up less paper clips then a highly magnetised nail, Hope That Helps:)
Does the thickness or length of a nail effect the electromagnetic strength?
no it only gives more room to pick up paper clips
When you touch a magnet to a steel nail the nail attracts steel paper clips. Explaine why this does not happen when you use an aluminum nail?
it wouldn't be magnet to a aluminum nail because the aluminum is not a way of magnet and a steel nail would because steel is a way of magnet.
What happens when you rub a nail with a magnet?
Rubbing a nail with a magnet will align some of the magnetic domains in the nail. This will have the effect of making the nail into a magnet. The nail won't be a strong magnet, but it will come away with some residual magnetism. Suggestion: try a simple experiment with a nail and a magnet and some small paper clips to see if this works.
Where are electromagnets found?
An electromagnet is a piece of metal that can be affected by magnetism (usually iron) that is wrapped in a electric conducting thread or wire (usually copper wire.) A really easy way to make an electromagnet yourself is to take a iron nail and wrap it in some copper wire. Then just connect the two ends of the wire and connect it to a AA battery. Test it by using the end of the nail to pick up some paper-clips and such.
Will a nail rust if you wrapped it in wet cotton?
Yes of course!
Why was the nail clipper called the nail clipper?
It's called that because it can clips nails. That's why it's called the nail clipper.
