Yesterday our science team tinkered around with wires. We  studied how we wrapped the wire  around the bolt and saw if their was a difference in strength. At first I thought their would not be a difference in strength. But when I found out that the more wire flowing through the bolt is creating more energy! I new that the electromagnet would pick up more paperclips. The difference from a temporary magnet you can,t cut the flow of energy an electromagnet you can.

Do all magnets have north and south?

Together with my science group. We tried to make an Electromagnet. We used a bolt,  battery, battery holder, paperclip and an insulated wire. The first step was we had to wrap the wire on the bolt. We had to be careful to not make the wire overlap. We also can’t put the insulated wire on the bolt. Step two now we half to put the the battery in the battery holder. Step three now we half to put the insulated wire in the little slits on the side of the battery holder. Then the bolt should be connected to the battery holder. Step four now your energy is flowing through your wire and onto the bolt then you put paperclip on the floor and put the bolt near the paperclip and that should work.
