Can You Use Magnetic Force to Power Your Boat?

 



Here is your mission if you choose to accept it!

Here's your STEM store!  You have a total of $15 to spend.

This is what happened:
 

 

Connor's group made their boat out of cardboard but when they put it in the water it didn't float. 

Pierce's group used a plastic bottle with yarn but they couldn't get the magnet to power it.

Olivia's group used a plastic bottle also with a magnet taped to the bottle cap and the end of the tub of water, but the magnet didn't always power it.

Sarah Reilly's group used a powerful magnet inside the plastic bottle and a magnet at the end of the tub of water and it seemed to fly toward the other magnet.
