The goal of this experiment is to provide evidence that fields exist between objects that exert forces on each other, even though the objects are not in contact. The fields are electrical/magnetic fields. The forces are the magnetic forces made stronger by the electrical field.
Write a paragraph describing your evaluation of the experiment and describing how to modify the experiment (if needed) in all the areas of the experimental design. Use the rubric to help you plan and assess your paragraph before handing it in.
In evaluating the experiment, it is clear that the goal of demonstrating the existence of fields between objects that exert forces on each other was successfully achieved. The use of electrical and magnetic fields to amplify forces between the objects was an effective way to show this relationship. One possible modification to the experiment could be to vary the distance between the objects to see how the strength of the fields and forces change. This would provide further evidence of the existence of fields and how they interact with objects at different distances. Additionally, using different materials for the objects could be a way to explore how different properties affect the strength of the fields and forces. Overall, the experiment was well-designed and provided compelling evidence of the existence of fields between objects.
