Six students each make an electromagnet for an investigation. Each student wraps copper wire around a nail and attaches each end of the wire to a 9-volt battery. The students use their electromagnets to pick up paper clips. The table shows the number of paper clips each student picks up with their electromagnet.

a) Write one question about how the electromagnets were made that the students could answer that would help explain the differences in the numbers of paper clips picked up by the electromagnets. Explain your reasoning.

b) Identify one factor, other than how the electromagnets were made, that would affect the number of paper clips picked up by the electromagnet. Explain your reasoning.

The question on how electromagnets are produced that students may answer to help explain the disparities in the quantity of paper clips taken up by the electromagnets "What is the strength of electromagnet”

What is static electricity?

The imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a substance, or between materials, is known as static electricity.

Static electricity is generated by Van de Graaff generators. Static does not include acceleration, implying that it is stationary, which pertains to the formation of electric charges.

a)The question on how electromagnets are produced that students may answer to help explain the disparities in the quantity of paper clips taken up by the electromagnets "What is the strength of electromagnet”

b)The one factor, other than how the electromagnets were manufactured, that influences the quantity of paper clips the electromagnet picks up will be electrostatics.

Hence,the whole activity is about the electromagnets.
