In this investigation, students figure out how changing the distance between two magnets affects pushing force strength.
The Pushing a Magnet with a Magnet kit includes all the materials students will need to design and carry out an investigation.
Each kit contains enough materials for six groups of students.
Materials:
- Rulers with groove
- Cylindrical Magnets
-
Sticker Sheet
