you can hang as many paper clips as you want until the weight of the paper clips becomes more than the pulling force of the magnet

WHICH IS MORE POWERFUL GRAVITY OR MAGNETISM?

Well, let's see. If I have a paper clip on a table and a magnet in my hand, and I slowly pass the magnet over the paper clip, the magnet in my hand is pulling the paper clip up with magnetism. If my magnet is close enough to the paper clip, the paper clip will jump up to the magnet ... even though the whole Earth is pulling it down with gravity.


How does the mass of a star before collapse compare with the mass of the black hole it becomes?

Technicly a black hole doesnt have weight it is a rip in the space time continuum. You have to think of it like this if you put iron shavings on a piece of paper they will stay where you put them however if you put a magnet under the paper the shavings will go towards the magnet, this represents gravity but if you cut a hole in the paper where the magnet is the iron shavings will get sucked off of the paper and stuck to the magnet. This is representative of the tiny fraction of th cosmos around any one black hole


If a paper clip is picked up by a magnet underwater will the paper clip be magnetized and pick up other paper clips?

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.


Does adding weight to a paper airplane make it fly farther?

Just adding weight will not make a paper airplane fly farther. However, adding weight in exactly the right places can make it fly farther, by improving its balance and stability.


What is the force called that moves paper clips toward a magnet without the magnet touching the paper clips?
