James passes a magnet over a pile of paperclips and the magnet picks up 2 of the paperclips. Then he passes a different magnet over the pile of paperclips and it picks up 6 paperclips. Which of the
following is NOT a testable
hypothesis that James might develop based on this data?
1. a weaker magnet will pick up more
paperclips than a stronger magnet
2. all magnets pick up paperclips, but the
number of paperclips depends on the
magnet
3. magnets will pick up metal objects but
not plastic objects
4. a stronger magnet will pick up more
paperclips than a weaker magnet
