You measure and record the physical properties of magnetism of two magnets by observing how many paper clips each will hold. The first magnet holds four paper clips. The second magnet holds two paper clips. You record that the first magnet is—

• stronger than the second

• weaker than the second

• the same as the second

• bigger than the second
