Description | ||
| This science fair project was conducted to find out how temperature affects the strength of a magnet. The tests were done using 5 permanent magnets at 0 degrees Celcius, 25 degrees Celcius, 50 degrees Celcius, 75 degrees Celcius and 100 degrees Celcius. | ||

| 1. For this science project, the independent variable is the temperature of the magnet - 0 °C, 25 °C, 50 °C, 75 °C and 100 °C. The dependent variable is the number of steel washers picked up by the magnet. This is determined by counting the number of steel washers that stick to the magnet. The constants (control variables) are the size of the magnet and the weight of the steel washers. 2. Five magnets are kept in the freezer of the refrigerator overnight, in order for them to stabilize at 0 °C for use in the experiment. 3. ..... | ||
