Description | Using a compass and a permanent magnet, students trace the magnetic field lines produced by magnets. By positioning the compass in enough spots around the magnet, the overall magnet field becomes evident from the collection of arrows representing the direction of the compass needle. Using a compass and a permanent magnet, students trace the magnetic field lines produced by magnets. By positioning the compass in enough spots around the magnet, the overall magnet field becomes evident from the collection of arrows representing the direction of the compass needle. In activities 3 and 4 of this unit, students apply this information to design a way to solve the grand challenge of separating metal for a recycling company. |
