You can make a great time machine with paper clips and yarn! The time machines I have experienced look very similar to Doctor Who's Tardis. To make this at home, you would ideally need some cardboard as well so you could fashion the front of your time machine into a blue police box. That can also be your base to paper clip your yarn to. Measure out several long strands of yard to form the walls for the back of your machine, and remember that a Tardis is much larger on the inside than it looks on the outside.

If you need stabilizing poles for your Tardis, straighten out some larger paper clips and use them as anchors for your yarn. Continue your construction in a tent-like fashion. You can also form your paperclips into different shapes to make your controls for the inside of your Tardis. Some imagination is required, but see the related link for a visual reference.

Do you expect paper clips to be attracted or not a attracted to a magnet?

Paper clips are typically made of steel, which is a ferromagnetic material. This means that paper clips are usually attracted to magnets due to the magnetic properties of the steel they are made from.


Two magnets were placed at a distance of 6 and 12 inches from atwo paper clips but the clips reached the magnets at the same time time why?

The force of attraction between two magnets decreases with distance. At a distance of 6 inches, the closer magnet has a stronger force attracting the paper clip. At a distance of 12 inches, the farther magnet's weaker force is compensated by the extra time it has to act. Thus, the paper clips reach both magnets at the same time.
