See for yourself how the forces of electricity and magnetism can work together by building a simple DC electric motor using simple materials you can find in any hardware store!
Electricity and magnetism are both forces caused by the movement of tiny charged particles that make up atoms, the building blocks of all matter. When a wire is hooked up to a battery, current flows through the wire because negatively charged electrons flow from the negative terminal of the battery toward the positive terminal of the battery because opposite charges attract each other, while similar charges repel each other. This flow of electrons through the wire is an electric current, and it produces a magnetic field.
In a magnet, atoms are lined up so that the negatively charged electrons are all spinning in the same direction. Like an electric current, the movement of the electrons creates a magnetic force. The area around the magnet where the force is active is called a magnetic field. Metal objects and other magnets that enter this field will be pulled toward the magnet.
The way the atoms are lined up creates two different poles in the magnet, a north pole and a south pole. As with electrical charges, opposite poles attract each other, while like poles repel each other.

Now let's watch it work as we build a motor.

Positioning your Slinky along any direction different from its initial position will affect your reading, because there will be change in the magnetic field.
<h3>Effect of magnet on Slinky</h3>
If the Slinky is made of an iron alloy, it can be magnetized by itself. Moving the Slinky around can cause a change in the magnetic field, even if no current is flowing.
When there is a change in the magnetic field, the reading changes.
At any point, you change the orientation of the Slinky, you will need to zero the reading or adjust the Slinky back to its initial position, even if the sensor does not move.
Thus, Positioning your Slinky along any direction that is different to its initial position will affect your reading because there will be change in the magnetic field.

The statement ‘Big bang theorists
believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract’ is false. The
answer is letter B. The big bang theory suggests that the origin of the
universe began with that exploded and expanded. It also states that the
universe began in a single form of high condensed reactive matter and exploded
forming the galaxies, planets, stars and other celestial bodies.
Ionic bonds are formed between a cation (metal) and an anion (nonmetal)
