filings, and salt into each pure form using filtration, evaporation, and magnetism. Background: When separating a mixture, preferably to separate a mixture that includes a soluble liquid and a insoluble solid, filtration is the best because solid molecules are bigger than liquid molecules. A filter contains pores that are small enough to let small partials though the pores while holding back the larger particles. Magnetism is ideal for separating mixtures of two solids with one part having…

Dr Mesmer called this phenomenon Animal Magnetism, he used dimly lit rooms which had hanging mirrors, soft music played while the patients sat in a circle around a vat, which typically contained elements such as powered glass or iron filings, the patients held onto iron rods that came out of the…

orientation. It shows location according to points. It has four directions, North, South, East, and West. Some types of compasses just have degrees such as 90, 180, 270, and 360. A small magnet is inside of a compass and it is attracted to the earth’s magnetism. All magnets have two poles, a north and a south pole. The north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet. Earth is a magnet and attracts to other things this way. The compass was invented in China in the 13th…

the connection between magnetism and electricity. This paper will give backgrounds on both Faraday and Oersted and will compare and contrast their works. Michael Faraday was born in London on September 22, 1791. He was the first person to produce an electric current from a magnetic field, He discovered diamagnetism and explained why some substances react opposite to a magnetic force when they encounter a magnetic field. He also discovered the effect of magnetism on light and he…

Karan Verma Mr. Nestor SES-4UO-A 10/28/2015 Geoscientist Biography Assignment Profile Richard Lee Armstrong 1937-1991 Lifespan and Background information: Richard was born August 4th 1937 in Seattle, Washington. He was a North American scientist best known for his work in the fields of radiogenic isotope geochemistry, geochronology and geochemical evolution of earth. He published over 170 scientific papers. He became a Canadian citizen and not long after he died of liver cancer on August 9th…

Electrostatics is a big branch inside of the tree of physics. When studying electrostatics you will learn about electric chargers that do not move. Static electricity is one of the many things that are covered in electrostatics. An object that has accumulated electric charge has static electricity (“Electricity for kids”, 1). The charges are not on the move nor do they flow from one place to another. It is easy to remember that the charges don’t move in static electricity, because static can be…

Magnets are one of the fundamental items in physics. This paper is meant to provide a general overview of magnets and their uses, as well as an in depth look into certain aspects of magnetism and how they relate to everyday life. Most images of a magnet come to mind as a tiny object used for hanging things on a refrigerator. But other applications are much more useful in our society in general. They are used in all kinds of speakers, in many computer parts including hard drives (for recording…

The science experiment that my partner and I are going to test is, do different brands of batteries affect the electric current of an electromagnet? Electromagnets are magnets that can be powered on and off, they can do simple tasks such as ring doorbells to surgically pull a steel splinter from your eye (Stringer). There are many factors that may affect the way electricity flows throughout metals. For example, the number of coils wrapped around the metal object may affect its magnetic strength.…

Literacy: This term Hudson demonstrated he is able to write in different formats such as diary entries, letters, stories and comics. In these various formats he was able to convey his ideas and experiences through writing and illustrations. Hudson’s illustrations are connected and support his writing. He uses an appropriate voice in his writing that allows his personality to come through in his written pieces. An example of this was in his fractured fairytale he created a story with embedded…

The author uses exclamatory phrases when he states how his product is one of a kind. According to The Onion, “What makes MagnaSoles different from other insoles is the way it harnesses the power of magnetisms.” Because MagnaSoles are one of a kind, the author can express a exclamatory tone towards his product when he says you have to get them. Although he doesn't use much exclamatory language, his convincing tone is what really persuades his audience…
