Testing the Strength of the Electromagnet by Changing the Number of Coils
Aim
The aim of this experiment is to investigate how the strength of an electromagnet is affected by the number of coil turns around the iron c-core.
Hypothesis
As the number of wire coils increases, the strength of the magnetic field (the electromagnet’s strength) will also increase. This means that the number of paper clips that attach to the electromagnet will increase.
Explanation of Hypothesis/background:
When a DC (Direct Current) electric current flows through a wire, a magnetic field is created. Wrapping the wire in a coil concentrates and increases the magnetic field, because the additive effect of each turn of the wire. (When a coil of wire is used to create a magnetic field, it is

Turn on the power source and leave it working for 30 seconds.
10. Count the number of paper clips attached to the electromagnet and record it (you have to count the paper clips with the power source switched on, otherwise they will fall off)
11. Turn the power source off, tap the iron c-core, in order to re-scramble the domains and rearrange the paper clips.
12. Repeat steps 3-11 three times for each coil turn.
Range of values and repetitions of the independent variable:
This experiment will be repeated three times for five different numbers of coils (independent variable). These are 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 turns.
These values are enough since they provided a large range and would be sufficient to test the hypothesis.
Graph:
A graph will be drawn with the number of coil turns on the x-axis and the number of paper clips attached to the electromagnet, on the y-axis. The graph will be entitled: The Number of Paper Clips Attached to the Electromagnet, against the Number of Coil Turns. (The graph should start from the origin because at 0 coil turns, there will be no magnetic field and hence no nails attached to the electromagnet. If it is not then there is a systemic error.)

The magnetized zeolite was then cooled for 5 minutes. For both zeolite and magnetized zeolites, the solutions were placed in two centrifuges with equal amounts of solution and placed in both tubes. The tubes were placed in the centrifuge for 10 minutes at 5000 rpm. The liquid in the tube after the centrifuge was poured into a 200 mL waste

The method of isolating metals in a compound mineral is normally conducted through two processes.

At first, the magnetic field sensor was plugged into analog A. Next; a magnetic field sensor was open in the Database Studio software by following several instructions. Once the magnetic fields sensor was free, we clicked on the “digits” that was on the lower left side of the screen. Then, the window appeared where it was ready to record the magnetic field. After the computer part was completely set up, we measured the diameter of the Helmholtz coil several times to get the more accurate measurement and recorded the measurement in the data. Later, we set up our device in a way that current flows in the same direction for all the coil.
Introduction to Physics Lab (ZBT1) Electromagnetic Induction Marc Westover C164 ZBT1 Task 2 Professor Taha Mzoughi 03/14/2017 Introduction This experiment describes a physics lab on electromagnetic induction. It will test if coils of looped wire produce an electric current and if the number of coils makes a difference in a reading.
(Androulidakis. 2012). There are different solutions to isolate a mobile phone from electro-magnetic radiation, and probably the best one is the use of a cage called “Faraday Cage”. The use of this solution is recommended not only because the isolation from external
This experience sparked Morgan's interest in how things worked, and he built a reputation for fixing them. His first invention, made during this period, was a belt fastener for sewing machines. Morgan also invented a zigzag attachment for sewing machines. In 1907, Morgan opened a sewing machine shop. One year later, more conscious of his heritage, he helped start the Cleveland Association of Colored Men in 1908.
Introduction For two days, on the 14th and 15th of April, a field excursion to Hastings Point, New South Wales was conducted. At Hastings Point, topography, abiotic factors and organism distribution were measured and recorded, with the aim of drawing links between the abiotic factors of two ecosystems (rocky shore and sand dunes), the organisms which live in them, and the adaptations they have developed to cope with these conditions. Within these two ecosystems, multiple zones were identified and recorded, and this report also aims to identify the factors and organisms associated with each zone. Lastly, using data and observations from the past, predictions for the future of the rock pool ecosystem were made.
Risk is when someone is taking a chance where there is something to gain or lose. For many people, like Chris McCandless and Jon Krakauer, are willing to take those risks even if there was a chance they would have to die for them. This quote was written by Krakauer describing the time he went to Colorado and planned to climbed Devil’s Thumb. “As I formulated a plan to climb the Thumb, I was dimly aware I might be getting in over my head.

The apparatus was then closed and turned on to run at 100 volts. Electrophoresis ran for 30 minutes; separating the DNA according to size in the gel. Then the tray with the gel was removed and a stain sheet was placed on the gel for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes that gel was rinsed with water and then set in water. Later, 20 to 30 minutes, the gel was view over a light box to view how far the bands traveled.
Risk is a part of daily life, but our attitudes and approaches to risk vary depending on a range of factors such as context, time, situation, previous experience, etc. To assess different situation, we will use different approach as well as if we are considering risk that we are taking in personal life or risks that service user are taking in theirs. The risk assessment process is not about creating huge amounts of paperwork; it is about identifying and taking sensible and proportionate measures to control the risks. The provision of care and support should be tailored to meet the needs of the individual and should encourage them to do what they can for themselves.
Risks are a possibility of loss or injury; all humans at least once in their lifetime have to do something risky. If life has no risks, you’re not really living it, since we humans do not grow as a species (or society) if there is no challenge in life. People in this world must have challenge and struggle to overcome an obstacle in their life to discover the real world. This way a person will grow physically and most importantly, mentally, to never do something adventurous or take the easy way out is on them. Krakauer, Emerson and Thoreau all have their own ideas on risk, but they all have in common is that risk can change a person for the good or bad.
According to dictionary.com, the word risk is defined as, a situation involving an exposure to danger, an injury, or a lost of something or someone. In Among The Hidden a novel by Margaret Peterson Haddix, readers meet Luke, the main character that is forbidden by a population law. The readers will find that Luke takes hazardous risks and bold actions that change his life by gaining new friends and freedom. According to the novel, risks are worth it because one risks help people build relationships, and two risks help people with making others happy and joyful.
The invention that I researched is the magnet, the central idea is that the magnet was very important for toy makers and scientists. The magnet is important because when a toy maker makes a handheld game they use magnets to keep certain things together like circuits. As a matter of fact if the magnet wasn’t invented/found then we wouldn’t have many of our favorite technology things like phones, tablets, televisions, and computers. The magnet was not invented it was found by a ancient greek man named Magnes. He was walking around when all of a sudden his shoe which had nails in it suddenly suck to a odd rock, he had discovered the magnet!
