Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.21 Magnet Interactions and Variables (State Extension) skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A class tested four conditions with the same magnet and steel washer. The average clips picked up were: no material at 1 cm = 8, paper at 1 cm = 7, cardboard at 1 cm = 6, and paper at 3 cm = 3. Which conclusion is best supported?
ACardboard has no effect on magnets.
BBoth distance and material can change the measured magnet effect.
CTesting one material proves how all materials will behave.
DPaper is always stronger than no material.
Solution & Explanation:The averages changed when the material changed at 1 cm, and they also changed when the paper condition moved from 1 cm to 3 cm.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A student wants to compare paper, plastic, and cardboard across 1, 2, and 3 cm using one chart. Which feature is most important to include?
Aa legend that shows which line or bar belongs to each material
Ba picture of the classroom
Ca different title for every trial
Donly the largest data value
Solution & Explanation:A legend helps readers match each line or set of bars to the correct material.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A graph shows clip counts decreasing from 0 cm to 3 cm, but one point at 4 cm is slightly higher than the point at 3 cm. What is the best interpretation?
AGraphs with one unusual point should be thrown away.
BThe graph proves attraction gets stronger the farther away the magnet is.
CDistance never affects magnets.
DOne small rise may be normal variation, so the student should recheck trials before making a big claim.
Solution & Explanation:One point that does not fit the overall pattern should be checked with more evidence before a conclusion is changed.
