Yes, a wind-up clock can be affected by a magnet, but it depends on the design. If the clock has a quartz movement or uses a magnetic escapement, the magnet can disrupt its function. However, traditional mechanical wind-up clocks, which primarily rely on gears and springs, are generally not affected by magnets since their mechanisms do not involve magnetic components.
If you put a magnet next to a clock, it can interfere with the clock's magnetic components and disrupt its timekeeping mechanism. This can cause the clock to either slow down or speed up, depending on the specific design and sensitivity of the clock. It is generally recommended to keep magnets away from clocks to maintain their accuracy.

Yes. But the attached paper clip will usually not generate a magnetic field as strong as the magnet itself. At some point, either the field will be too weak to pick up another clip, or the weight of the clips will exceed the lifting power of the original magnet. The magnetic field is not affected by water. In fact, the slight reduction in weight due to the buoyancy will normally allow a slightly larger string to be formed underwater than in air.
Yes, a magnet can pick up steel BBs because steel contains iron, which is a magnetic material. The magnet will attract the steel BBs due to their magnetic properties.
A magnet only picks up paperclips when it gets close because the magnetic field produced by the magnet is strongest near its surface. As the paperclip gets closer, it enters the magnet's strong magnetic field and is attracted to it.
The wind up device should be behind the face of the clock.

Peter Henlein, a German locksmith and clockmaker, is credited with inventing the first portable spring-driven clock in the 16th century, which is considered one of the first types of wind-up clocks.
A wind up clock can be purchased in many different places online and in retail stores. Depending on what design you want on your clock will dictate where the purchase is made.
A wind-up clock stores potential energy in a wound-up spring. When the spring is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which drives the gears and hands of the clock to move and keep time.
first there were wind up clock, the battery opporated clock, and now electric clocks

To wind up a 3-hole Gilbert clock, first locate the winding arbor keyholes on the clock face. Insert the winding key into each keyhole and turn it clockwise until you feel resistance, indicating that the clock spring is fully wound. Be careful not to overwind the clock, as this can damage the mechanism.
Wind-up clocks to digital is one of the best.
You need a tube, a coil of wire, a magnet and a capacitor to store the charge.
no if its messed up than u put a magnet neer it your tv may shock u
You wind up a spring and a notched wheel makes the clock tick consistantly. the hands move with the mechanism to make the clock move a little bit every minute. (The spring is tightened when you wind it up) +++ The "notched wheel" is part of the "escapement", which does indeed control the speed, but the actual controlling influence in a mechanical clock is what that wheel drives and in turn returns the compliment by locking and releasing the wheel at a set rate. And that is the harmonic-motion properties of either a coiled spring attached to a miniature flywheel called the 'balance wheel', or of a pendulum.
