Part 3/7:
The first tests involved dropping a single magnet with the north pole facing upwards and then south pole facing upwards. The results were not visually dramatic but set a baseline for understanding how magnets behave in isolation. When the same magnets were tested in pairs with opposing poles, the results showed enhanced interaction, making the magnets drop faster compared to their single counterparts.
Opposing Poles at Play
In subsequent trials, pairs of magnets were dropped with their north and south poles aligned for attraction. The magnets fell more rapidly than when repulsion was introduced, which became a key observation: magnets in attraction consistently fell faster than those in repulsion.
