Observations of magnetic permeability of different materials

Introduction:
Magnets and electromagnets form crucial and important parts of many machinery and devices that we use in our daily lives.

Designers of such machines use a combination of conductivity and magnetic properties of different materials to achieve specific functions.

The ability to become a permanent magnet, the ability to become a temporary magnet and the inability to become a magnet are among such properties.

Magnetic permeability is the ability to direct magnetic flux. Magnetic permeability is an important physical property of any material; and it affects our decisions when selecting material for different applications. 

 
 Project description:
Learn about the magnetic permeability and find why it is important. Design an experiment to observe the magnetic permeability and use it to compare the magnetic permeability of different metals and nonmetals that you have access to.
