To solve this problem, we need to look at each object and decide if it is made of metal that contains iron. Magnets stick to things like steel and iron, but they do not stick to plastic, paper, wood, or cloth.
Here is the step-by-step check for each item:
1.
Book: This is made of paper. A magnet will
not attract it.
2.
Boot: This is usually made of leather, rubber, or fabric. A magnet will
not attract it.
3.
Fork: Most forks are made of metal (like stainless steel), which contains iron. A magnet
will attract it.
4.
Scissors: The blades of scissors are made of metal so they can cut. This metal contains iron. A magnet
will attract them.
5.
Feather: This is light and made of keratin (like hair). It is not metal. A magnet will
not attract it.
6.
Pot: Cooking pots are often made of metals like steel or cast iron so they can handle heat. These contain iron. A magnet
will attract it.
Final Answer:
The objects that the magnet will attract are:
*
The fork
*
The scissors
*
The pot
