The electromagnet with more batteries picked up fewer paperclips.
The electromagnet with more batteries picked up more paperclips.
Increasing the coils of wire increased the strength of the magnet.
Increasing the coils of wire decreased the strength of the magnet.

Answer 1

The electromagnet with more batteries picked up more paperclips.

Answer 2

Based on the information provided in the chart, you can infer that the electromagnet with more batteries picked up more paperclips. This suggests that increasing the power supply (batteries) of the electromagnet increases its magnetic strength, allowing it to pick up more paperclips.
