Effect of magnet:
Experimental set-up
- Take a plastic or a paper cup.
- Fix it on a stand with the help of a clamp as shown in figure.
- Place a magnet inside the cup and cover it with a paper so that the magnet is not visible.
- Attach a thread to a clip made of iron.
- Fix the other end of the thread at the base of the stand. (Keep the length of the thread short.)
- Bring the clip near the base of the cup.
What happens now?
It is seen that the clip is in the air without any support. It shows the property of magnetic materials.
