The diagram below shows a magnet and two paper clips.



Why was Paper Clip 2 attracted to Paper Clip 1 after Paper Clip 1 was stuck to the magnet?

(1 point)
Responses

The magnet repelled Paper Clip 2 and made it attach itself to Paper Clip 1.
The magnet repelled Paper Clip 2 and made it attach itself to Paper Clip 1.

Magnetism traveled through Paper Clip 1 to Paper Clip 2 and made them magnetic.
Magnetism traveled through Paper Clip 1 to Paper Clip 2 and made them magnetic.

Magnetism was already present in Paper Clip 1 and Paper Clip 2 when they were attached to the magnet.
Magnetism was already present in Paper Clip 1 and Paper Clip 2 when they were attached to the magnet.

Attaching the magnet to Paper Clip 1 caused it to transform Paper Clip 2 into a new material that was magnetic.
