when I did it I got up to 31 but had no more room in my bowl
On average, a strand of hair can hold the weight of about 100 grams. The number of paper clips a hair can hold would depend on the weight of each paper clip. A standard-sized paper clip typically weighs about 1 gram, so theoretically, a hair could hold around 100 paper clips.
Three. A paper clip is a three dimensional object.
A normal paper clip has 4 bends.
A typical paper-clip is 4 inches (100mm) uncoiled .
The number of paper clips you can hang from a single paper clip will depend on the strength of the paper clip and the weight of the paper clips being hung. On average, you may be able to hang 5-10 paper clips before the weight causes the paper clip to bend or break.

Items needed.a tissue paper (half the size of a dollar bill)a paper clipa bowl full of waterpencil with erasermethod.1.Fill the bowl with waterTry to make the paper clip float...not much luck, huh?Tear a piece of tissue paper about half the size of a dollar billGENTLY drop the tissue flat onto the surface of the waterGENTLY place a dry paper clip flat onto the tissue (try not to touch the water or the tissue)Use the eraser end of the pencil to carefully poke the tissue (not the paper clip) until the tissue sinks. With some luck, the tissue will sink and leave the paper clip floating!how is it possible?How is this possible? With a little thing we scientists call SURFACE TENSION. Basically it means that there is a sort of skin on the surface of water where the water molecules hold on tight together. If the conditions are right, they can hold tight enough to support your paper clip. The paperclip is not truly floating, it is being held up by the surface tension. Many insects, such as water striders, use this "skin" to walk across the surface of a stream.
You lay down the paper clip on a sheet of paper and use one of the pencils to hold the clip in place pointed side down. Next you take the other pencil and start drawing the circle. You can find a video on youtube that illustrates it. My son had this as a homework assignment, I found it very useful.
