Nolan tests how distance from a magnet affects the strength of the magnetic field. He tapes a
magnet and a wooden ruler to the table so the ruler's end touches the magnet. Next, he places paper
clips at different distances from the magnet and records his observations. What does he observe?
The closer the paper clips are to the magnet, the less they are attracted to it.
The closer the paper clips are to the magnet, the more they are attracted to it.
The magnet attracts the same number of paper clips at all distances.
O The magnet does not attract any paper clips at all at any distance.

The observations made by Nolan on variation of magnetic force with distance is that the closer the paper clips are to the magnet, the more they are attracted to it.

What are magnets?

Magnets are the objects usually made of iron or nickel or cobalt which has the property of attracting other iron objects and property of attraction and repulsion with other magnets.

What is Magnetic force?

It is the force of attraction or repulsion produced by a magnet . When a magnet is kept near other magnet, the unlike poles attract each other and like poles repel each other. when a magnet is kept near an iron object it attracts the iron object towards it with a magnetic force

The magnetic force varies with distance, it is more stronger near the magnet and less as we go away from it.

So the paper clips which are made of iron when kept near to the magnet are attracted more as compared to the paper clips which are away from the magnet.
