Jm science engineering project
- 1. Science Engineering Project By: Jeffery Middlemas
- 2. Problem and Solution • My problem is that if you drop something like screws, paperclips, etc., you need an easier way of picking up those objects with ease. • The solution that I came up with was to make a long, skinny object that has multiple magnets on the end of it to pick up the objects if they fall on the floor or get behing something like a fridge, dresser, or some other heavy object.�
- 3. Why I Chose this Project • I chose this project because I am always dropping things behind heavy things and having to move it around so I can get the things that I dropped.
- 4. What I Enjoyed Most about Doing My Project • I enjoyed making the device and testing it because l liked seeing what my device would do and if it worked.
- 5. Explanation of Procedures • Put the device just above the small objects • If they don't pick up, lightly touch the device with the objects and, most likely, they will pick up • When attached, bring the end of the device close to you and pick the objects off of the end
- 6. Problems Encountered • A problem that I encountered was if the object that I dropped was a metal that wasn't attracted to magnets. Another problem was the glue not sticking, but I found a solution by adding hot glue.
- 7. Results
- 8. What I Learned From this Activity • I learned how strong a magnet really is, how long businesses have to make up ideas, and how useful my device is.
- 9. Things that I would do Differently • What I would do differently next time would be to have larger magnet strength to pick up the objects farther away.
- 10. Most Difficult Part of My Project • The most difficult part of my project was getting the right sized supplies to fit the device well.
